Bruce Wilkinson Quotes

A moment of gratitude makes a difference in your attitude.

The journey toward your Big Dream changes you. In fact, the journey itself is what prepares you to succeed at what you were born to do. And until you decide to pursue your Dream, you are never going to love life the way you were meant to.

If your life consistently bears no fruit, God will intervene to discipline you. If your life bears some fruit, God will intervene to prune you. If your life bears a lot of fruit, God will invite you to abide more deeply with Him.

You are not an accident. You are one of a kind. Your big dream is from God, and its irreplaceable. And you were born to seize it and celebrate it every day of your life!

Not surprisingly, the place we're most likely to experience testing is exactly where we struggle most to trust God.

Keep your eyes on Christ, not the circumstances you find yourself in or the feelings you are experiencing.

God didn’t want me to do more for Him. He wanted me to be more with Him.

In my experience, God rarely makes our fear disappear. Instead, he asks us to be strong and take courage.

Imagine what your life will look like when you have broken the bondage of fear.

The single best way to develop leaders . . . is to take people out of their safe environment and away from the people they know, and throw them into a new arena they know little about. Way over their head, preferably. In fact, the more demanding their challenges, the more pressure and risk they face, the more likely a dynamic leader will emerge.

It's never too late to act on your dream

A Dreamer is a person whose life is in motion.

Our dreams, like the disciples’, are always too small. We are here to fulfill God’s dream—that we will bring Him glory through a remarkably abundant life. That’s how we find our greatest personal fulfillment, now and for eternity.

God's power under us, in us, surging through us, is exactly what turns dependence into unforgettable experiences of completeness.

As God’s chosen, blessed sons and daughters, we are expected to attempt something large enough that failure is guaranteed…unless God steps in.

Dependence upon God makes heroes of ordinary people like you and me!

In my experience, God rarely makes our fear disappear. Instead, He asks us to be strong and take courage. What is courage? As Ordinary discovered, courage is not the absence of fear; rather, it's choosing to act in spite of the fear. You could say that without fear, you can't have genuine courage.

The most fruitful and the most joy-filled Christians are the most pruned Christians.

If people are not sharing their faith in your church, if they're not having a quiet time, if they're not living godly lives, then you need to change your style of preaching. You are obviously not seeing lives changed through the Word of God. So what is the problem? The problem isn't the Word. The problem is your preaching style.

What counts is knowing who you want to be and asking for it.
