We are not the passive victim of others' opinions. Their opinions are powerless until we validate them.
John Ortberg
The greatest moment of your life is now. Not because it's pleasant or happy or easy, but because this moment is the only moment you've got. Every past moment is irretrievably gone. It's never coming back. If you live there, you lose your life. And the future is always out there somewhere. You can spend an eternity waiting for tomorrow, or worrying about tomorrow. If you live there, you likewise will lose your life. This moment is God's irreplaceable gift to you.
John Ortberg
We must minister out of weakness. The reason we help others is not because we are strong and they need us; it is because if we don't help them, we will end up a hopeless relic.
John Ortberg
Leadership is the art of disappointing people at a rate they can stand.
John Ortberg
A deep soul lives in conscious awareness of eternity, not simply today.
John Ortberg
Skepticism can keep us from blessing, can keep us trapped in two minds.
John Ortberg
No heart is as whole as a broken heart, and no faith is as solid as a wounded faith." Elie Wiesel
John Ortberg
God is never a God of discouragement. When you have a discouraging spirit or train of thought in your mind, you can be sure it is not from God. He sometimes brings pain to his children-conviction over sin, or repentance over fallenness, or challenges that scare us, or visions of his holiness that overwhelm us. But God never brings discouragement.
