John Ortberg Doe Quotations

Peace does not lie in getting God to give me other circumstances. Peace lies in finding God in these circumstances.

There is no way for a human being to come to God that does not involve surrender.

The Bible does not say you are God’s appliance; it says you are his masterpiece. Appliances get mass-produced.

How hard is it for God to get your attention? Do you regularly practice turning aside in your day? That is, taking a moment to listen to God- because God, through the Holy Spirit, really is speaking, because we know, every place is filled with the presence of God. There is not an inch of space, not a moment of time, that God does not inhabit.

Failure does not shape you; the way you respond to failure shapes you.
