This message has blessed me immensely. I don't have the right words to express how much i needed to hear this today and it won't be the last time I'll play it. God bless you man of God. 🙏🏽
I’m not the type of person who posts comments on TH-cam videos, but I have to say Thank you so much for your teachings. These are so good and it has helped me tremendously. God bless your ministry and your family! Thank you! 🙏🏻
I will praise the Lord no matter what happens. My son of 26 Abraham is in a hospital with a crisis of mental illness, which came at the age of 16 . Lord take care of my son in the name of Jesús. You are his doctor!
God truly can work in mysterious ways!!! Wanted to listen to a message by Pastor Rick, today, and the title of this one pulled me in, immediately, because of something I'm dealing with that's been bringing me down, for a long time. The message was Powerful and Spot-On, and when I read through some of the comments, before leaving mine ... there, to my astonishment, was a comment I made, two years back!! :O Amazing! What I'm dealing with, now, I was not, back then, so I know it was really meant for me to hear this, again!! I pray it has the same positive impact on you!
I was very depressed, but you're right, I finally realized happiness is a choice, and even though I am very lonely I offer up any suffering to Christ for my many sins. And what people did to you is despicable.
I am going thru alot . I started on my book. Ñow I feel Gods been with me a long time. Im happy for you ,ýour wife and staff and most importañt GOD. Ì love you too
Few weeks ago I hit a deer with my truck . I prayed and stay positive and he did help me put truck back together so blessed. Then as I finished the work I seen I had a flat tire. So I went to take tire off and realized my lug nuts was loose and about to fall off. I realized God did this to save me or my kids riding in my truck. I thank you God for everything you do for me amen. Thank you Rick I know God has used you to save my life and I want to thank you God is good
Hey Pastor Rick… I live in Baton Rouge Louisiana and you are awesome and have such a Kind and Gentle Spirit …. Different than most pastors…. God Bless you! ❤️
Pastor Rick, You have been in my life for 16+ years. I was given, the Purpose Driven Life, by a Nurse at a cancer hospital. I had lost a leg and was having chemotherapy treatments. She gave me your book. I have follow some of your teachings. But about 2 weeks ago, I went head first into God. I realized I was nothing. I needed God. By the grace of God, I found you and started listening to you on TH-cam. I listen to you each day and attend your online Sunday Services. I have signed up for a class starting in January 2022. Thank you for being a voice of God. Have a Very Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and many blessings to you and your family.
Hello pastor Rick Warren, I absolutely love you're sermons about the bible. After a couple of videos I gave my life to Christ Jesus. What was weird is that in every you tube video I see, you always makes me tear up all the time 😂😂. Thankful to God that he led me to you're videos and it's not by chance I now feel it. What's actually weird is that I thought you had already talked about this the other day which even prompted me to update my what's app status which now reads "constantly seeking God's approval over man's validation 😊.weird enough is that I have just paused this video at 19:52 after you say it.I can't thank you enough for leading me to Christ Jesus.
Wow!! I just listened to this. I'm agnostic. My aunt recommended this gentleman to me. What an eye opener!! I will listen to this again and study it in depth. Been going through depression and anxiety. This should help a lot. Definitely something bigger is out there. God bless you all!!!
I will forever be grateful for the gospel teachings this kind soul has blessed me with. Everyday I am in agonizing pain over the loss of my family, but I remember the teachings of the scriptures, I pray, and I listen to God's word, and He delivers me from the pain. I am witness to a miracle nearly everyday. And every day, I heal a little more, and find a little more peace.
I love this sermon I watched it …. And rewatched….and rewatched Thank you so much My downfall is allowing others to control my happiness and living in the past/regrets I’m a work in progress however-- God is soooo good though :)
Im there too. Made huge mistakes and cant seem to move on. Its like i drank the pouson hoping THEY would die. Doesnt work that way. Iv suffered for years w depression too. I have to move on and live my life now. Not in the past.

Physical pain is a big one to make you feel sorry for yourself. Cuz it affects everything you do. God showed me many other people that have it worse than i do. It changed my attitutude and perspective about my pain.
