With more than 100 books sold, Joyce Meyer has become one of the world's leading Bible teachers. The host of the TV and radio show "Enjoying Everyday Life," Meyer has traveled the world, teaching God's word and encouraging people to live their lives in His name.
Here are six of Meyer's most memorable quotes about life as God's children:
1. When it comes to living the most fruitful lives, Meyer says "Jesus came into the world so we could be redeemed from our sins, know God, and experience His very best in our lives."

2. It is not always clear which path to take when life presents you with decisions. Meyer says the choice is easy because you just have to "trust the Holy Spirit to 'move' you when you need to move. On the path of righteousness, He will lead you to the right place or to do the right thing at the right time."
3. Meyer described how she realized that she was making positive decisions in her life as she grew closer to God. She says, "if God is with us, we can know in our heart what's right and wrong and we can be secure in the decisions we make."

4. Fears and feelings of insecurity can seem crippling, but believing in God's will can help you overcome them. Meyer writes that "understanding God's character and incredible love for us allows us to relax and trust Him in ever(y) area of our lives."
5. Once you learn to love yourself and trust God, it is important to use your blessings to help others improve in their lives, as well. Meyer wrote that "we all have room to grow in our relationship with God, and learning how to reach out to others is a big part of that process."
6. All around the world, there are people in need, who don't even have the basic essentials of life. That is why Meyer states we should never take things for granted because "maintaining an attitude of gratitude is something we need to do on purpose."
