“God wants you to be delivered from what you have done and from what has been done to you - Both are equally imporant to Him.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“Today Lord I am going to do my best with Your help and for Your glory. I realize that there are many different people in the world with a variety of opinions and expectations. I will concentrate on being a God-pleaser and not a self-pleaser or man-pleaser. The rest I leave in Your hands lord. Grant me favor with You and with men and continue transforming me into the image of Your dear Son. Thank You Lord.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“There are two kinds of pain: the pain of change and the pain of never changing and remaining the same.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“God's love for me is perfect because it's based on Him not on me. So even when I failed He kept loving me.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“God plants dreams in people's hearts. But many people do not continue all the way to the end in order to follow Him to the fulfillment of that dream. Many get started and quit get started and quit get started and quit. They do not continue because their broken heart overwhelms their hope. They do not have any inner strength to carry them through to the end. Jesus will bind up your wounds and heal your bruises. His Word is the medicine for your soul.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“If you can believe the God who is perfect loves you then you can believe that you are worth loving.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“God is the Champion at bringing people from a place of destruction to a place of total victory. As they reach that place of victory they become trophies of his grace. and they are set on the display as a fragrant reminder of God's goodness.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“God does not always call us to go back physically to a place we have been. But if for example we have a difficult time submitting to a boss with a certain personality God may call us to continue working with someone who has the same personality until we master the situation in a godly way. God does not want us to be on the run He wants us to confront our fears and frustrations in order to find peace in Him.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“The Holy Spirit showed me that when I put up walls to keep others out I also wall myself into solitary place of confinement.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“I always asked for forgiveness for my sins right away but I never accepted it until I felt right that I had suffered enough to pay for it. God revealed to me what I was doing how much unnecessary pain I was causing myself. He even showed me that what I was doing was an insult to Jesus that in essence I was saying Lord the sacrifice of Your life and blood was good but not good enough. I must add my work of feeling guilty before I can be forgiven.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“If you look at your circumstances you will put off doing what God is telling you to do. It can seem like the worst time to do whatever God says to do. BUT there is an anointing on "now" if God has told you to act.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“The Holy Spirit knows precisely the right timing in our lives. I always say, "Only the Holy Spirit knows when you are ready for what." In other words, the Spirit of the Lord is the only One Who knows what it will take to help you, and when you are ready to receive help.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“The more we focus on who we are in Christ, the less it matters who we were in the past, or even what happened to us.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing
“I am not where I need to be, but, thank God, I am not where I used to be.”
― Joyce Meyer, quote from Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing

“The heavy round face was looking at him, the hard look of a man who had also understood, who had seen all the stupidity, who knew, after all, that the gold stars were often mindless decoration, that the army was led not by symbols, but by the fallible egos and blind fantasies of men.”
― Jeff Shaara, quote from Gods and Generals

Those Who Save UsBookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
