Barbara Johnson Quotes


"Allow your dreams a place in your prayers and plans. God-given dreams can help you move into the future He is preparing for you." ~Barbara Johnson, Contemporary American writer

"Every flower that ever bloomed had to go through a lot of dirt to get there." ~Barbara Johnson 

"It doesn't take monumental feats to make the world a better place. It can be as simple as letting someone go ahead of you in a grocery line." ~Barbara Johnson

"Life can be wonderful. Do your best not to miss it!” Enjoy what it is before it isn’t anymore. Dare to slip on a pair of bunny slippers once in a while! Surprise yourself! Enjoy the little things because one day you’ll look back and realize they were the big things!" ~Barbara Johnson

"Live for today but hold your hands open to tomorrow. Anticipate the future and its changes with joy. There is a seed of God's love in every event, every circumstance, every unpleasant situation, in which you may find yourself." ~Barbara Johnson

"Once a reporter stood in front of a fire as it consumed a house and then he turned to see the homeowners and their little son watching it burn. The reporter, fishing for a human interest angle, said to the boy, "Son, it looks like you don't have a home anymore." The little boy promptly answered, "Oh, yes, we have a home. We just don't have a house to put it in." ~Barbara Johnson from LLF

"We can never untangle all the woes in other people's lives. We can't produce miracles overnight. But we can bring a cup of cool water to a thirsty soul, or a scoop of laughter to a lonely heart." ~Barbara Johnson

"When you live in the present moment, time stands still. Accept your circumstances and live them. If there is an experience ahead of you, have it! But if worries stand in your way, put them off until tomorrow. Give yourself a day off from worry. You deserve it. Some people live with a low-grade anxiety tugging at their spirit all day long. They go to sleep with it, wake up with it, carry it around at home, in town, to church, and with friends. Here’s a remedy: Take the present moment and find something to laugh at. People who laugh, last."~Barbara Johnson

"You have to look for the joy. Look for the light of God that is hitting your life, and you will find sparkles you didn't know were there." ~Barbara Johnson
