Inspiring Quotes from Corrie:
“An addiction is anything that preoccupies us from our relationship with God; it’s wherever our mind and attention are focused – whether work, food, a substance, or something else.”
“The physical body is to house the spirit so that we can do the work God has ordained us to do, to fulfill our purpose. And that purpose comes in all different body sizes and shapes. The question is, do you feel fit for the work God has uniquely called you to do?”
“I view exercise now as being a good steward of what God has blessed me with.”
“You cannot separate the physical body from the work God is doing in the soul, and it is the Holy Spirit that brings those areas of work together.”
“When you let go of comparison, everyone is invited to the table.”
“We’re all on an equal playing field when it comes to how we are seen through God’s eyes as His beloved children. Because of that, there is no need for comparison.”
“The physical body cannot follow suit behind an unhealthy mind. It starts with the mind, will, and emotions, the soul.”
“We have to be smart to the ways of the enemy. He can’t come out with punches, he can only attack through deceptive lies. If we do not have the tools, then, to take every thought captive, it is impossible to live a victorious Christian life.”
“The Holy Spirit is within us from the moment of salvation, but as we are walking by the Spirit and more attuned to His voice, the quicker and easier it is for us to hear God speak.”
“God-esteem is different than either self-esteem or self-loathing.”
“Just remember that God formed you. You are not an accident. You have been made by grand design, and no matter what you have done right or what you have done wrong, we serve a God who can and does re-write stories.”
