Inspirational Quotes by Charles Stanley
“When we hear His promises, we think, That is in the future. But the Father has already seen the end and is reporting the reality to us—He has achieved all that He said He would do (Isa. 55:10–11). Time just has to catch up.”
“The truth of the matter is that our goals are generally very small and unsatisfying compared to the awesome, eternal plans the Father desires to accomplish through us.”
“Pride entices us to favor people who build up our egos. Everyone wants to feel accepted and loved. The best way to rid your life of pride is to surround yourself with people who care for you for the right reasons and not just to stroke your ego. Pride is”
“God is greater than any form of evil. He is alive and present with us through the power of His Holy Spirit in the lives of those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. This means that not only do we have a sure hope for what seems to be the most hopeless of circumstances, but we also have a loving Savior who comforts us in our times of trial and heartache (2 Cor. 1:3–4). He has a plan for your life, even if it has been damaged and torn apart by the winds of adversity (Jer. 29:11). You may think that there is no way He could ever love you, but He does. He created you in love for the purpose of knowing and loving you. Catastrophic events that involve innocent people are not the result of anything we have done wrong. God is not a stern judge who is sitting up in heaven waiting for the right moment to crush us for our actions.”
“However, not all sorrow and adversity come as a result of disobedience. Some of the disappointments come from living in a fallen world. Many”
“Once a person feels that he has gotten away with sin, he rarely, if ever, thinks, I won’t do that again because I know it displeases God.”

“Friend, don’t allow the storms in your life to discourage you; rather, cling to the Lord and invite Him to fill you with His strength and hope. Hold tightly to Him and to the promises He’s given you—no matter what the cost or how circumstances appear. Have faith to the end. Because you know that with God, you’ll be able to endure anything that comes your way in life and emerge triumphant.”
“The truth that serves as the object and foundation of the Spirit-filled life is (1) the Holy Spirit indwells you, (2) He is the life of Christ in you, and (3) He is willing and able to produce the character of Christ through you.”
“Success is the continuing achievement of becoming the person God wants you to be and accomplishing the goals God has helped you set.”
“If any experience in your past is defining you today—other than your salvation experience—then you have serious work to do.”
“El Señor es el autor y consumador de nuestras vidas; no solo de nuestra fe, sino de todos los aspectos del potencial que ha levantado en nosotros.”
“Algo de la preocupación también se arraiga en la obediencia. No hay sitio en las Escrituras en el que se nos dé licencia para ser irresponsables.”
“En muchos individuos el remordimiento está arraigado en el hecho de que no tuvieron valor, fortaleza, vitalidad, resolución, y lo más importante, no confiaron en que Dios les daría el valor, la fortaleza, la vitalidad y la resolución que necesitaban.”
“Have you ever stopped to think what you might like to do if you didn’t work at the job you presently have?” His eyes brightened. “Sure,” he said. But then his shoulders slumped and the light went out of his eyes. “But that’s only a daydream. Maybe I’ll get to do that in another ten years when I retire.” I felt sorry for this man as I watched him leave. To think of awaking each morning and going through the motions of a job only for the money seems like sheer drudgery. Such a job is a burden, not a blessing.And the greater the burden associated with any responsibility, the greater the tension, frustration, and anxiety. Furthermore, there’s plenty of opportunity for regret to settle in. If this man doesn’t begin to pursue the God-given dreams that reside deep in his heart, he’s going to find himself saying in the future, “I regret I spent my life doing what I did. I wish I had taken a different path.” He”

Charles Frazier Stanley was born September 25, 1932, in the small town of Dry Fork, Virginia. The only child of Charley and Rebecca Stanley, Charles came into the world during a time when the entire nation felt the grip of the Great Depression. To make matters worse, just nine months later, his father Charley died at the young age of 29.
However, Charles refused to let the Great Depression or the difficulties of his life define him. Instead, like his father and grandfather before him, he clung to God’s Word and took up the mantle to preach the gospel to whoever would listen.
Dr. Stanley’s motivation is best represented by the truth found in Acts 20:24, “Life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about God's mighty kindness and love.” This is because, as he says, “It is the Word of God and the work of God that changes people’s lives.”
Dr. Stanley’s teachings can be heard weekly at First Baptist Church Atlanta, daily on “In Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley” radio and television broadcasts on more than 2,800 stations around the world, on the Internet at intouch.org, through the In Touch Messenger, and in the monthly, award-winning In Touch magazine.
