"If we all woke up every morning asking, 'How can I love, serve, and
obey God today?' it might change everything - it might even change the
world."
--> Richard Stearns, President of World Vision
"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."

--> Richard Stearns
"It's not what you believe that counts; it's what you believe enough to do."
--> Gary Gulbranson
"Think for a moment of your life like a house with many rooms. Your faith cannot be just one more room in the house, equal with your job, your marriage, your political affiliation, or your hobbies. No, your faith must be like the very air you breathe, in every room of the house. It must permeate not just your "Sunday worship", or even your vocation and your behavior at home, but also your dealings with everyone around you - including the poor. That's how deep the commitment must be.
So what does God expect of you, then? Everything."
--> Richard Stearns
"God can't give you the blessings He has for you until you first put down the other things you are clutching in your hands."
--> Richard Stearns
"Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit grace that could be theirs" -- Jonah 2:8

--> Richard Stearns
"He could have used just a stick to save the nation of Israel. But He chose to use Moses - and his stick. All He required was for Moses to be available and obedient."
--> Richard Stearns
"God does nothing by happenstance. He doesn't wake up one day and say, 'I need to find someone to run World Vision; I wonder who I can find?' No, God is a God of order. He created us all for a purpose and envisioned our lives at the very beginning of time itself. He gave us each a unique personality and a set of aptitudes and placed use each in a particular family. Day by day, He brings key people into our lives and provides life experiences that shape us. God does al of thise with His purpose in mind, tailored to the individual - you and me."
--> Richard Stearns
"I am a little pencil in the hand of God who is sending a love letter to the world."
--> Mother Theresa
"Let my heart be broken by the things that break the heart of God."
--> Bob Pierce
