Larry Burkett Quotations

...most entrepreneurial types are free-wheelers who like to do a variety of things and do not enjoy routine tasks. But a smart entrepreneur will eventually learn that while ideas start businesses, organization makes them successful.

Few Christians understand the concept of eternal rewards, even thought the Lord dedicated a great deal of His precious time on earth to teaching about them. The one certainty is that our position in the Lord's kingdom will be inversely proportional to how we indulge ourselves in this lifetime.

... there is one primary purpose of a Christian's business: to serve God.

...when I prayed to receive Jesus Christ as my Savior, I had made that promise...: 'If You'll make Your will for my clear, I'll do it no matter what!'

The more we listen to God's voice, the easier it is to recognize when He speaks to us.

Decide that you're going to love the people around you, even those you don't particularly like - or perhaps especially those you don't like.

Over commitment in business is usually due to a lack of faith, which results in fear - specifically, the fear of failure. But if we really believe God is in control, then we also should believe He's able to make us successful while we are keeping our lives in balance.

In business, organization is an absolute necessity, not an alternative.

The average Christian pays more in interest than he gives to the Lord's work. In a church of 100 families 37 will give nothing.

Trusting God is the answer. He will never let you down.
