Joyce Meyer

My mother in law told me about Joyce Meyer a few weeks ago and suggested I check out her half hour special each morning to start my day off right. She could not have been more right! I've gathered wonderful and inspirational quotes from Mrs. Meyer.

She struck me with the first episode I watched. I tend to stress out very often and she happened to be discussing the effects of such tendencies. Meyer said that "stress is a down payment on a problem you may not have." Oh my goodness is that dead on.  More times than not, when I have anxiety over something and drone about it for weeks and weeks it almost always works out! Imagine that, you pray and then you end up thanking God for answering.

Here are a few others in the past weeks :

"God, you are God. You are awesome and I do not need to be demanding that you explain everything to me. I need to live by your promises, not by your explanations." 
"When you give, you are more like God than at any other time." 
"Invite God to get into your mess and change it."
Meyer is extremely easy to relate to. She does not sugar coat anything and tells life the way it is for her. She has come out of terrible experiences and is deeply sincere with every word. In NYS, you should be able to catch her at 830am and 1030pm on your Christian stations. You can also view her website and watch her broadcasts there.
