More From Joel Osteen

In adversity, there is opportunity. show me someone who has done something worthwhile, and i'll show you someone who has overcome adversity. i've never known anybody to achieve anything without overcoming adversity. adversity is another way to measure the greatness of individuals. i never had a crisis that didn't make me stronger.
Motivation Adversity Opportunity
The trials and pressures of life--and how we face them--often define us. confronted by adversity, many people give up while others rise up. how do those who succeed do it? they persevere. they find the benefit to them personally that comes from any trial. and they recognize that the best thing about adversity is coming out on the other side of it. there is a sweetness to overcoming your troubles and finding something good in the process, however small it may be. giving up when adversity threatens can make a person bitter. persevering through adversity makes one better.
Giving Up Adversity People
The confidence and faith of the heart alone make both god and an idol. if your faith and trust be right, then is your god also true; and, on the other hand, if your trust be false and wrong, then you have not the true god; for these two belong together faith and god. that now, i say, upon which you set your heart and put your trust is properly your god.
Heart Hands Idols
Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.
Jobs Mean Reality
The reality of living by faith as though we were already dead, of living by faith in open communion with god, and then stepping back into the external world as though we are already raised from the dead, this is not once for all, it is a matter of moment-by-moment faith, and living moment by moment. this morning's faith will never do for this noon. the faith of this noon will never do for suppertime . the faith of suppertime will never do for the next morning. thank god for the reality for which we were created, a moment-by-moment communication with god himself.
God Morning Communication
I'm talking to a journalist and i really have nothing to say anymore, this is already uncomfortable. i feel the pain coming already. the brutal pain, when one day i should read your edit of whatever i say, because no matter what i say, no matter how i say it, no matter its tone, its frequency range, its decibel level or the way in which i put the words together, no matter my intentions and no matter the truth. what i'll read one day will be a chastised, manipulated abortion of your misunderstandings, your manipulations, your agenda and your amateur use of the english language.

There is an art in taking the whiplash of suffering full in the face, an art you must learn. let each single attack exhaust itself; pain always makes single attacks, so that its bite may be more intense, more concentrated. and you, while its fangs are implanted and injecting their venom at one spot, do not forget to offer it another place where it can bite you, and so relieve the pain of the first.

By remembering that i don't know sadness or pain like the people do in the camp and to be sad will not help them.

Life's what's important. walking, houses, family. birth and pain and joy - and then death.
Life Pain House
Pain is a gift. humanity, without pain, would know neither fear nor pity. without fear, there could be no humility, and every man would be a monster. the recognition of pain and fear in others give rise in us to pity, and in our pity is our humanity, our redemption.
