Inspired By M. K. Gandhi
Gandhi identified with the simple and the humble. This is what I find inspiring about him.
Jesus Stands At Your Door
Will you trust in Jesus Christ and let him in today? Will you seek his wisdom above your own wisdom, and will you seek his life above your life?
Success, Victory and Prosperity in the Christian Life
When I first went to Christ I thought that he would make me successful, victorious and prosperous in life. Now I still believe that success, victory and prosperity are worthy goals in the Christian life, but they don't seem as important as they did once.

The Sayings of Samuel Godfrey George - July 2013
Why is it difficult
for you to show faith in God who never changes? God Himself shows faith in you
who are always changing your mind.
Our very breath
testifies to a living God.
Every justifiable
expression of anger should be characterized by restraint.
To give love
without expecting to get love can only be God's way. To love those who are not
easy to love can only be God's way. To repay evil with good can only be God's
way. The devil cannot take credit for any of these actions.
May we reflect on
the words of the Lord's Prayer and desire His goals for us.
It is in seeking forgiveness and in forgiving that healing is obtained. I have been particularly insensitive to unbelievers in God. Who am I to judge them? I have been asked to only share God with them lovingly. And so far I haven't achieved this. So I seek the forgiveness of God and those whom I have hurt.
Today God has
brought me to a place of brokenness. I recognize my great sin, which is pride.
I have been proud and resistant to God and His image. I have directed this
pride against His people. And of pride I repent today. May God forgive my
insensitivity to others. May the people of God forgive me. May God send healing
to me today.
God, you are the
function in my dysfunction.
Today if you want
to get do not fail to give.
Let us not be so
busy being desperate about our present troubles that we forget to thank God for
his many past benefits, and let us not forget that he is still with us ready to
help us.
When you are
bothered by what you do not have, rejoice in what you have.
Be calm in the
silence. Listen to your own mind.
Blessed are my
small beginnings.
After you throw off
everything that hinders it is still a race that has to be run.
Let your faith not
worry itself to death but let it be sure of Him Who inspires your hope.
This is the
greatest thing that I have done in my life - this service to God. Thank you
Lord for letting me do it.
When I think of my
past and what I did once it is not easy for me to see the person that I have
become. Yet I must shout the truth from the rooftop: I am a new person in
Christ. And I have the mind of Christ!
It is for light
that I was born. It is to speak the words of light that my voice was given. So
let me stay in the light and not return to the darkness.
Is Jesus the only way to God?
What about the good people who didn't believe in Jesus Christ? Will they not receive salvation?
Let us encourage and reassure one another
Sometimes in life we are in a lonely and scary place. That is the time when we need to be reassured daily of God's faithfulness.

Jesus Will Look At The Heart
How does Jesus look at his people who are so divided? The question came up recently in a discussion regarding divisions in the Church.
This Is My Message
God is not a terrible person. He is not the awful disciplinarian that I thought he was. I have come to see him as a loving, understanding and sympathetic God. And he is not out to punish me. He loves me and wants me to share his love with others.

Jesus Christ Is The Way To God
The essence of the Christian faith is the belief that Jesus Christ is the only way to God and eternal life with God.
Let God Control My Thoughts
Only a higher nature can quell a lower nature. It is impossible in human terms to control ones' thoughts. That is why God must help a man control his thoughts.
Do NOT Condemn
Christ came into the world not to condemn the world but to save the world. As followers of Christ let us endeavour to do the same.
The Most Important Thing Is Love
To love one another is probably the principal commandment of the Lord Jesus Christ. This must take precedence over any preoccupation with sin, which makes a person self-involved.

Obsessed With Sin
Why are Christians obsessed with sin? Why are they not obsessed with Christ who paid for their sins?
Christianity in Low Light
As Christ welcomed the unwelcome ones, let Christians welcome those whom they would normally shun.

Love Is The Way
Jesus Christ declared himself to be the way. And Jesus is God, And God is love. So the way is love.

God Is Not My Secret
For Martin Sytsma
I will not be silent about God. He is the best news that I have heard. And I will tell those who have not heard.

Restraint and Tact in Communication
If a speaker cannot consider a listener's feelings he should rather not speak at all.
False Preachers
Every preacher makes mistakes. Every teacher has some fault. In this world there is a need for compassion and understanding. And above all there must be a desire to learn from everyone and everything. One must see the good in everything and must avoid the impulse to condemn someone or something as false.
Freedom of Expression
Freedom of expression does not mean that one is free to say whatever one wants, regardless of another person's feelings.
I Will Not Judge Your Heart
Only God judges the heart and truly knows the inner man. A man cannot even understand his own heart. In that case, how can he judge another man's heart?

A City On A Hill
God has made me a city on a hill visible to all. I am visible not to point to myself but to the one who built me and placed me on elevated ground.
Christ Followers Damage Christ
Many of the so-called followers of Jesus Christ who are most unlike Him. Thus they distort the very image of God.

I Cannot Choose Disbelief In God
Troubles have assailed me. Some prayers remain unanswered. But I'm in no mood to give up my hope yet. If I did there is nothing else for me.
Is The Evidence For God Not Clear?
The evidence for God is present in the life that we see in and around us. However the kind of evidence that some people require for believing in God cannot be given as God is not scientifically observable. He is so for a good reason. He is an invisible God and requires to be accepted in faith.

Reacting to Signs and Dreams
What do certain signs and dreams mean? And what should be our first reaction to them?
When God doesn't seem good and powerful
For some people God is not a welcome subject. He seems improbably good and powerful. In fact some totally deny his existence. But if God exists, how can we explain his goodness and power in the wake of many disquieting questions?
God Saved Me From Trouble
Once more God saved me from trouble. Thank you Lord for sending help.
