Quotes by Nick Vujicic

Hope and purpose in this world is living as best as you can and maybe having life that gives back. But simply giving back isnt purpose; its a branch of purpose, but it is not the trunk or root of the tree.

Hope is in the name of God, the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Hope is when you compare your suffering to the infinite, immeasurable love and grace of God.

At my funeral, if one said, Nick was a generous person, trust me I wont be doing cartwheels in my coffin. Recognition from people is never and never will be a goal. Some people strive for that respect or honor. Living a life to just reach for the position and status is vanity and sin.

If we went by the worlds definition of who Im supposed to be because I look weird... Well, surely, this guy cant have a productive life, surely, he doesnt have a sense of humor. Surely, he cant love life. We stereotype people in this world. And so... if the world thinks youre not good enough, its a lie, you know. Get a second opinion.

Often people ask how I manage to be happy despite having no arms and no legs. The quick answer is that I have a choice. I can be angry about not having limbs, or I can be thankful that I have a purpose. I chose gratitude.

Faith is walking by faith, not by what you feel. You are not always going to feel that Jesus loves you or that God is good, but you know He is. It is the up and down of the journey.

I challenged God. I said, God, I know that Im a sinner. I know that I wont probably have peace until Youre in my heart. But I will not let You in my heart until You answer me, why? Why did you take my arms and legs? Why didnt You give me what everybody else has? God, until You answer me that question, I will not serve You.

The greatest news that I could ever say is that Jesus is Lord and Savior of my life. He is my friend. He is with me wherever I go. Im so delighted to continue to grow in my relationship to Jesus.
