Mormonism is a little different, but I still see them as brothers in Christ.
Joel Osteen -
I believe God's keeping the records, and I believe you will be rewarded even in this life. Somehow, some way, God will make it up to you. It may be He protected you from an accident you never knew. You can't give God something without God giving you more in return, whether it's peace or joy or satisfaction.

You are victors, not victims!
Joel Osteen -
I'm a reverend and a pastor. A pastor of the church. I go by usually pastor.

Isn't it funny how babies laugh a lot? I read a toddler, a young child laughs 300 times a day. The average adult laughs, like, four times a day. God put it in them. He put the laugh in us, but I think sometimes we let life get us down, you know, have bad breaks, and we lose our breaks.
Joel Osteen -
The main rule to me is to honor God with your life. To life a life of integrity. Not be selfish. You know, help others. But that's really the essence of the Christian faith.
Joel Osteen -
It doesn't matter who likes you or doesn't like you, all that matters is that God likes you. He accepts you, he approves of you.
Joel Osteen -
When I grew up, the Devil was a reason why I had a headache or the Devil was the reason I got mad today. We always blamed the Devil. I think today when I say the Enemy, I like to make it broader. Sometimes the Enemy can be our own thoughts.

I believe that God breathed life into every person and that every person is made in the image of God and you have accept them as they are, on their journey. I'm not here to preach hate or push people down.
Joel Osteen -
The truth is, somebody is always talking about you, so you have to let it go... if it's not a part of your God-given destiny.
Joel Osteen -
I feel like my message is to let people know that God is a good God, that He's on their side, and no matter what happens, He has a great plan for them.
Joel Osteen -
A lot of people have it a lot worse than you do.
Joel Osteen -
I think how you start the day many times determines what kind of day you're going to have.
Joel Osteen -
Faith activates God - Fear activates the Enemy.

Christmas is the perfect time to celebrate the love of God and family and to create memories that will last forever. Jesus is God's perfect, indescribable gift. The amazing thing is that not only are we able to receive this gift, but we are able to share it with others on Christmas and every other day of the year.
Joel Osteen -
I don't mind saying, you know, that I don't take a salary from the church, and God has blessed me with more money than I could imagine from my books. It's been printed all over, so I don't feel like I am hiding anything.
Joel Osteen -
People in tough times - it doesn't mean they don't have a great attitude.
Joel Osteen -
God always wants us to be growing.
Joel Osteen -
If we're going to bring out the best in people, we, too, need to sow seeds of encouragement.
Joel Osteen -
I think God gives every one of us our own will, and unfortunately, some people choose to do evil things with it.
Joel Osteen
-
Just because something didn't work out your way, or somebody disappointed you, that does not change who you are.
Joel Osteen -
Well I think a lot of times we're putting things off and I'm going to do it later. I'm going to break this bad habit or I'm going to pursue this dream or I'm going to treat my spouse better.
Joel Osteen -
It seems like when I was growing up there was more compromise, wanting to work with each other, and I think all of them - all of the lawmakers - have hearts to do what's right, and they all are passionate about it.
Joel Osteen -
I think Bible principles are principles for life.
