More From Joyce Meyer

The number one need in all people is the need for acceptance, the need to experience a sense of belonging to something and someone. the need for acceptance is more powerful in your family than anywhere else.... if that need is not met by your family, trust me, your kids will go elsewhere to seek it in order to find approval and acceptance.
Powerful Kids Acceptance
What is sin? it is the glory of god not honored. the holiness of god not reverenced. the greatness of god not admired. the power of god not praised. the truth of god not sought. the wisdom of god not esteemed. the beauty of god not treasured. the goodness of god not savored. the faithfulness of god not trusted. the commandments of god not obeyed. the justice of god not respected. the wrath of god not feared. the grace of god not cherished. the presence of god not prized. the person of god not loved. that is sin.
Greatness Wrath Justice Of God
Self-acceptance begets acceptance from others, which begets even deeper, more genuine self-acceptance. it can be done. but no one is going to bestow it on you. it is a gift only you can give yourself.
Acceptance Self Giving
Man depends on god for all things: god depends on man for one. without man's love god does not exist as god, only as creator, and love is the one thing no one, not even god himself, can command. it is a free gift or it is nothing. and it is most itself, most free, when it is offered in spite of suffering, of injustice, and of death . . . the justification of the injustice of the universe is not our blind acceptance of god's inexplicable will, nor our trust in god's love, his dark and incomprehensible love, for us, but our human love, notwithstanding anything, for him.
Acceptance Dark Love Is
Acceptance is not a talent you either have or don't have. it's a learned response. my meditation teacher made a great point about the difference between a reaction and a response: you may not have control over your initial reaction to something, but you can decide what your response will be. you don't have to be at the mercy of your emotions, and acceptance can be your first step toward empowerment . . . for me, acceptance has been the cornerstone to my having an emotionally healthy response to my illness.
Teacher Acceptance Differences
True prayer is only another name for the love of god. its excellence does not consist in the multitude of our words; for our father knoweth what things we have need of before we ask him. the true prayer is that of the heart, and the heart prays only for what it desires. to pray, then is to desire -- but to desire what god would have us desire. he who asks what he does not from the bottom of his heart desire, is mistaken in thinking that he prays.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the thousands of marathon runners, onlookers, city officials and others affected by this senseless tragedy.
Prayer Cities Tragedy
Prayer, among sane people, has never superseded practical efforts to secure the desired end.
Prayer People Effort
Prayer is meaningless unless it is subversive, unless it seeks to overthrow and to ruin the pyramids of callousness, hatred, opportunism, falsehoods. the liturgical movement must become a revolutionary movement seeking to overthrow the forces that continue to destroy the promise, the hope, the vision.
