Sayings Of Samuel Godfrey George - July 2014

For what I am able to do today, thank you God.

I have reached that place where I am alone and without help. Many are my difficulties. And I don't know where to begin. But I must speak to you my Lord. I must ask you again to help me. I must speak simply and trust simply like a child. Help me do that today. Let me seek your face alone and trust in you alone. You alone can help me.

Seven years I have worked with you and for you. I have spoken for you. I dedicated my life and my voice to you. But now for a brief while I remain interrupted and silent. Even now I try to reach out with love to those who may need to hear me. But it is becoming increasingly difficult my Lord. Will you bring joy into my life? Will you answer my prayer? Will you relieve my difficulty? Will you notice me now? Please do.

I'm tired and I've waited long. But you have not shown up the way I wanted you to. But I realize that I still have quite a lot to be thankful for. Even today I felt your love and your consideration. Why then should I lose hope? Surely goodness and mercy will follow me today and every day. Thank you God.

When you think about what you do not have, also think of what you have, and try to be grateful for what you do have.

When you think all is lost but God is still there, then all is certainly not lost.

How can we worship God as long as we ignore those who are in need?

"GodInSam", my new computer is still a dream. But it is a dream that will certainly come true.

I'm in terrible trouble. And yet how is it that I'm still hopeful of relief? Thank you Lord for the peace you give in the midst of storms.

Don't feel bad because you are rejected by human beings. Feel glad because God accepts you no matter what you have done.

Some people have made a business out of serving God. Every truth is bought and sold. Every message is attached to a request for help. Yet there are others who work for God alone and unseen. They make few requests, at least not persistent ones. They work passionately despite many hardships. Is their suffering to go on unrelieved? Will people give only to those who make overt. persistent requests? Such an outcome is lamentable. Let people reach out to those who suffer silently for God.

If you give only to those who ask from you, how will you ever reward those who do not ask because they do not wish to trouble you with their burdens? Such people are more worthy of your giving. It is they that you must attend to first.

Give whatever you can even if it is little. But give. Never hesitate to give even your last penny. For that is the way of the people of God.

When we go through troubles, let those who are in Christ remember that they have already overcome them. For Christ has overcome the world for all of us, and if we are in Christ, then we too have overcome the world.

When I sin I know myself. When I fear I know myself. But when I see God I see what I can be in Him.

Aim at prosperity and you may not find God. But aim at God and you will be prosperous in the most significant way.

With God all things are possible. So be with God first and all other things will follow.

Let us first desire God's kingly rule over our lives and His righteousness. And everything else we need will follow.

God Almighty, I trust in You and in Your Son, my Lord Christ. I cast all my desperate cares on You. And I will wait on You to strengthen and deliver me. Amen

God bless you all dear people. May love reign in your hearts. And may you rejoice in God and share with one another. Amen

Seven years I have spoken about Jesus Christ and I will speak even more, if it is according to the will of God.

Thank You Lord for showing kindness to us today. We were in dire need and You supplied at the right time. Thank you so much. May You supply the needs of all Your suffering children today.

Today I may not have certain things. But I once had a great father. I still have a wonderful mother and two terrific aunts. And every gift God has given me is still with me, growing and developing in the knowledge of all that God does in me. For this I am utterly grateful. And I say, "Thank you God."

Dear Father, rest in peace. May God grant you everlasting joy and may we meet again some day. Thank you BG for being my dad.

Today I remember my father B. Ganesan. When I was a young boy, I briefly lost vision in my left eye, following an accident. In the first hospital where I was examined, a doctor announced to my father that I would never regain my vision and that I would see the world with only one eye. A few moments later, my father broke down and wept bitterly lamenting over my fate. That was the first time I had seen him cry, and I was totally shocked by his reaction. It was only years later that I realized that his strange reaction revealed the depth of his love for me.

Today I remember my father, B. Ganesan (aka George Godfrey) who passed away 10 years ago. This is his birth anniversary day. For many years while he lived, he and I did not get along very well. But before his death, God inspired me to visit my father. A few days before his last birthday I asked my father to forgive me for all my wrongs against him. He forgave me and blessed me. For these great acts I have only God to thank. He placed love in my heart for my father and enabled me to express it before it was too late. I praise God for His merciful consideration.

On the promise of God I stand today. What I lack is not important. What I have is all that matters. God is what I have. And His grace is sufficient for me at all times, even now, as I experience severe lack. And He WILL supply all my needs, no matter how hopeless it may look.

For God who gave me many ideas in the last seven years to convey a simple message of His love, I say thank you.

When you need help give help.

Lord.I know that you will not fail me ever. Even though your answer has not arrived, I wait in hope, trusting in your unchanging nature and unfailing mercy. You are my Father and I am your son, and nothing will change that.

God bless you and strengthen you today to face the challenges of life.

Be happy with what you get even if what you get is little. And thank God for it.

For God to act you should be willing to wait indefinitely.

To see God you must wait.

When God disappoints me let me think about the times when He delighted me.

Don't base your faith on feelings and happenings. Base it on ultimate truths regarding God. And be willing to trust those truths even if you should walk into a furnace.

When you need consolation console someone else. When you need to believe inspire someone else to believe.

God shall supply the needs of His people. So do not fear. He will neither leave you nor forsake you. He will supply your needs today. Amen.

If you are wondering whether anyone cares know this. God cares. So cast your cares on Him and trust Him to take care of them. Stop worrying because nothing good comes out of it.

What is my work? In a childhood dream I cried out to a raging inferno in the sky, "I will serve you!" Though there was no reply from the Fire, my heart raged with a mad desire to attach myself to Him, whom I instinctively knew to be God. Today after seven years of speaking for Him, I ask, "Who is God? And why should I care about Him?" And the answer is this, "There is no me without Him. There is no us without Him. There will be no us if we do not attach ourselves to Him. Without God there is no hope for Man." And this is why I will continue to urge the world to go to Him.

All things are possible to him who believes. Today I believe that all things are possible in my life.

God bless you. Be well. Trust in God and don't depend on your understanding.

God bless all His people today. May He listen to their prayers and attend to their needs.

I have spoken for Jesus Christ for seven years. Now I rest, because my computer has failed me. I would love to speak again for God. I have prayed to Him to send me help to purchase a new computer. May God answer my prayer and send help.

Sayings Of Samuel Godfrey George - August 2014

My beautiful Lenovo Y510p with Intel Ci7 processor and full HD display has become my new tool of love. Born on 30 August 2014 "GodInSam" will take the love of God to places where it is not even suspected.

When nothing seems possible, that's when God will do it for us.

I have got more than what I wanted. I can only thank God for it.

Bless the Lord, O my soul. And all that is within me bless His holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul. And forget not His benefits. And my brand new Lenovo Y510p with a Ci7 processor is my latest blessing from God. And it now sits on my table. And I am typing on it right now. What a long wait! And what a great ending!

"GodInSam" is here. Thank you God for my new computer. The dream has been fulfilled. A prayer has been answered. God is great.

I will be the man that God designed me to be.

What I learned in the darkest hours is that there is a beauty that only turbulence can disclose.

Don't be upset today if you have failed. God knows your heart. And He will help you express it.

Today I don't know just what to do. So I cast all my cares on my God, for He cares for me.

May God bless all of us today. Let us remember His benefits.

God WILL supply our needs today. Let us rest in this promise.

Lord, I need your help today. Attend to your needy children today.

God bless you all today. May you glorify Him in all that you do. May He supply all your needs and grant you rest and healing.

Let my passion for God be endless.

My doubts will not prevail over me.

May I continue to glorify my king, the Lord Jesus Christ, in these dark and troubled times.

May God reverse the tough situation in which we find ourselves today. May God bring us relief in this difficult time.

May I continue to glorify God in whatever way I can. Lord, let my joy in you continue. Make a way for me where there seems to be no way. Let my ministry continue. Amen

In times when we don't know, let God be our eyes.

God is the only one you can wait for confidently.

I'll wait as long as God wants me to wait. I am confident of His affirmative answer to my prayer. But let His will be done.

To rest in confidence in the might of God and the certainty of His providence is faith.

Stop with the trying. Start with the believing.

I am poor. But my God is rich. So I am well.

I'm only a servant. A servant of God. And that's enough for me.

There is always God after anything. So whatever happens wait for God.

A friend who goes beyond a well-wisher, who actually translates her good-will into helpful action, is a friend par excellence.

With difficulty comes experience, and with experience knowledge. You discover your friends when they respond to your struggle.

What has happened to me? I wanted to serve only myself. But why did I decide to serve God? I wanted to keep my voice a secret. But why did I make it public? I knew nothing about computers. But why did I choose to work on one? I truly despised the Bible once, but why did I begin to read it so greedily? Slowly but surely a great hunger and an even greater determination appeared within me. I must know God as well as I can, and I must speak about Him as well as I can. For seven years I banged away at a computer editing my voice that recorded the words of God in the dead of night. For years I walked into snake-infested thickets holding my own camera strenuously as I struggled to voice my emergence into light. Yes I walked out of utter darkness and now I stand in God's blazing light. Miracles that I never asked for or expected have happened to me.

This is love. God loved me even before I knew there was a God. For many years I wandered with a distorted notion of God. I reviled Him and all that He stood for. I embraced sin and immorality, and considered these the chief pleasures of life. But then God did not give up on me. Far from that He pursued me silently and one day pounced on me and began to have His way with me. From my unclean lips He spoke to the world. From a voice that remained hidden for years, He sounded His love. From within the dysfunctional clutter of my mind He conveyed His crystal-clear knowledge. This is the greatest miracle one will ever see: a depraved mind becoming the mind of Christ. And this is the miracle that I am.

Many times God blessed me when I didn't even wait in expectation. My greatest blessing came when God led me to my father just before his death. God inspired me to apologize to my father for many years of disrespect and coldness. This came at a time when I didn't even pray about our troubled relationship. Isn't it awe-inspiring to realize that God cares more than we do about the most important things in our lives?

It is good when people pray for one another. This is a great service of love that we render to God. Thank you to everyone who prays for another.

God bless you all. May He be there for you. May you be near Him.

Miracles are bound to happen to those who are looking for them in the right place and from the right source. The right place is Jesus. The right source is God.

"My God will not fail me today. My God will never fail me." Just say it.

God is our Father. We are His children. May God love us today and provide for us. May we love Him and show our gratitude to Him by telling others about His great faithfulness.

Let us make a list of every good thing that God has done for us. This will help us thank Him better. For the sole purpose of our lives is to thank God for all His goodness.

There was a time in my life when I didn't give thanks to God for anything. I didn't even know that He had something to do with what was going on in my life. Now I give thanks to God for everything that I can think of. It just occurred to me that it may never be possible for me to thank God for every thing that happened in my life. Without Him there will be no me and nothing to thank Him for.

Thank God that there is a God. There is a God out there who cares and who loves. Let me go to Him today and receive His love.

Let God supply the needs of His people today. He has not despised or disdained the suffering of the afflicted ones. Be comforted, for your Lord WILL provide.

You came before me. I cried out my servitude to you. Then I forgot all about you. After many years you came back to me again. I fell in love with you. You broke me bit by bit and trained me to be your servant. You gently led me into the light. And you encouraged me to speak. I spoke, then sang. And then you silenced me. Will I speak again? I don't want to know. It's your wish. Let it be done.

I have spoken for God just as I promised. Even if I should never speak again for Him, I can always rejoice in what I did, for that will never be erased.

I'm glad that God gave me six years to speak about what He has done with me, and what He can do with you. Even if I don't have another moment to do that again I can rest peacefully.

Rest from your worry and ceaseless activity. God will supply your needs.

Take heart. God has not despised or disdained the suffering of the afflicted. He has heard our cries and will respond to them.

Let your dream not die.

Sorry Lord. Sorry that I tried to move without you. And now you've put me in my place.Thank you.

I believe in a God who restores. So I will not sit around and complain about what I lost. I look forward to God's restoration of every good thing that I lost.

The church must welcome sinners of the worst kind to be anything like Christ. And it must let them stay.

Should prostitutes not hang around with the man of God? Did God himself not hang around with prostitutes while he was on earth?

Mistakes are my best teachers. O may the best teachers abound in my life!

It is God who turns the dream into action. God turned my dream into action and the action will go on.

To sit somewhere and whine about what didn't happen is just not me. I go on with the intent to relish this moment, to acknowledge gratefully what I still have.

I expect God to answer my prayers. I expect God to give me something better than what I want. He is a God who gives, and He gives more than what I ask or imagine.
 

It is when something appears impossible that it becomes possible for the one who believes in God. I cling to this hope. But let God be god. And let me be a man who will always hope in Him.

Today, on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of his death, I remember my father with gratitude. He may not have always shown himself to be a loving or caring man. Very often he revealed himself to be the opposite. But with God I was able to see my father in a way that I could have never seen him before. I saw a man who loved me and cared for me in his own flawed way. I saw a father who wept for his child when he nearly lost his eye. I saw a man who cared for me in small yet memorable ways. I saw a man who never really asked me to be anything but myself. I saw a father whom I had never seen before. With God I saw my father. And today my eyes well with tears again, this time in gratitude to God for enabling me to see my father and to love him like a son before he passed away from this world. Thank you Father for showing me my father.

Dance only to your tune even without applause.

Dislike is better than apathy.

Give before you speak.

Throw out that ego out and you'll feel a lot lighter.

Celebrate your mother while she is still here.

Let us not be reluctant to give today. Let us be the first to give. And let us give generously.

I smile today only because of God.

Ask God. Believe that He will do what you ask. And that will do.

All children of God will always be blessed. Be sure of this. Expect your blessing and give thanks to God.

I say to myself today, "If God is for me, who can be against me? Why should I fear when God is with me? He will be with me in trouble and will ultimately deliver me from it. God uses trouble only to strengthen my faith and deepen my trust in Him. When His purposes are fulfilled, He will order the trouble to leave me. I will never be alone. Thank you God for promising to stay with me always, especially in trouble. Even when I walk towards death I will not fear, for I know that You are with me. I will not be intimidated by the difficulties in life, for I know that You have overcome the world, and as I am in You, I too have overcome the world. In fact I am more than a conqueror and I can do all things through Christ. Nothing is impossible for me when God is with me."

I say to myself today, "Because I love God He will rescue me and protect me from all harm. He will be with me in trouble and will deliver me. Because I have made Him my refuge, no harm will befall me. No disaster will come near me. God is my refuge and my fortress. I trust in Him. I will not be anxious for anything. I cast all my cares on Him because He cares for me. I will not let my heart be troubled or fearful. For God is my strength, and I trust in Him. Thank you God for commanding your angels to guard me in all my ways. Thank you Lord for promising to deliver me from all my troubles."

I say to myself today, "I am a child of the Most High God. I am blessed and cannot be cursed. I am blessed when I come in. I am blessed when I go out. God has a good plan for me and a future that I can look forward to. With God I will live life to the full. Because the Lord is my shepherd I shall not be in want. He will supply all my needs. His grace is sufficient for me. He will give me more than what I ask or imagine. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell with God forever. I will bless my God forever and will never forget His blessings."

When God seems to be doing nothing, He is certainly doing something. So don't give up on God. Expect Him to meet your need.

Sleep well today. God is with you. And He will take care of you. Those who will stay awake, be sure of this. There is a God in heaven who cares about you. Leave your life in His hands and and rest knowing that it is well placed.

Let us expect to be blessed by God today. No matter what your situation is, trust in God and keep trusting in Him. Cast your cares on Him, and try not to worry about them. God will certainly carry our burdens. He made this very clear to me yesterday. Many times God has saved me. Yet I still panic whenever I get into trouble. But God is there and He will save. This is my message to you today. Don't give up on God. He will not forsake you.

There is no fear in love. So do not be afraid to love. Love God first and then love whatever you want. For those who love God will learn to love like Him.

Don't entertain fear as long as you entertain God.

Praying and believing for something is no easy task. Ask Elijah about the time he prayed for rain. He had to send his servant seven times to find out if there was any sign of rain in the skies. Finally after the seventh inspection the servant reported a cloud the size of a man's fist. And this was all the encouragement that Elijah needed. He sprinted probably like no man had ever done. He ran ahead of King Ahab's chariot and the rain.What seemed like a tiny, insignificant cloud turned into massively threatening rain clouds in a short while. This is how quickly God will bring forth an answer after a prolonged delay.

This is my prayer to God today: "Lord, I would like you to supply my needs today. But if you don't, please supply the needs of your other children who are crying out to you day and night. I don't need to tell you this. But this is my request to a God who truly cares."

God bless all His children today. And may He supply their needs.

When in need give. Give and you will receive even more.

Without giving you cannot love.

God is a giver. And if I want to be like God I should give. I cannot love God without loving the people He created. And I love another by giving something of value that is needed.

How can we worship God as long as we ignore my brother or sister in need?

My greatest weakness is also my greatest strength. Because when I am weak then I am strong.

If God be for us who can be against us? Let us believe this and say it more often.

Many times I go with my gut instinct. Rationalizing it will rob me of a potential miracle. Or so I imagine.

Lord, don't hide from me today. Answer me quickly.

I bless God today for enabling me to speak to people. He has put the desire in me to convey the faith that I have received from Him. Today I realize that I am merely a channel through which He conveys His message. My voice, my message, my faith - they all belong to Him.

As we ask God to show us mercy let us show mercy to all those who have hurt us.

Let us who are close to despair remember this. God has a good plan for us.

God will never leave us nor forsake us in our time of need.

Let us who wait on God not panic today. He WILL NOT fail us.

And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed in the lives of all who trust in Him.

O Lord do more for us than we can even ask or think. On your bounteous nature we count today.

The God of the Bible is a miracle worker. He saves His people miraculously. Today I pray that He meets the needs of all His people, who are waiting for His miraculous intervention in their lives. May God supply the needs of His people today.

Sayings Of Samuel Godfrey George - September 2014

I must spend more time believing in God than I do in doubting Him.

God shows you that you are weak, yet tells you to declare that you are strong. God shows you that are a sinful wretch, yet tells you to declare that you are the very righteousness of God in Christ. God is truly a god of ironies.

We make ourselves by what we say, they say. And they may be right. But this is what I say: when you place yourself in God's hands, and become pliable like clay, then He will make you into what He alone can make you to be.

"O God save me!" is my most spoken refrain these days.

Keep quiet when you want to lash out.

When everyone cares you look at everyone. When no one cares you look at God.

The desire for order has been placed in human hearts by God who has also placed humans in terrible disorder. In truth earthly disorder fuels the desire for heavenly order.

The need for God comes when helplessness is recognized.

If we don't see God as the ultimate problem-solver and all-supplier, will we try to please him or follow him? At the end of all God-belief there is expectation of reward. Take away this expectation and you take away the irresistibility of God.

Is everything really permissible for a follower of Christ? It is said that Jesus Christ called us to live in freedom. But what freedom is this? Is this freedom to do anything and everything? Or is this freedom from a certain kind of life? Is this freedom from a certain bondage? People who live in the world are prey to the desires of the world. People who live in this world are subject to the impulses of this world. And when they are subject to the impulses they are also vulnerable to being in bondage to these impulses. When you live in the world it is easy to be in bondage to the desires of the world. It is freedom from such a life of bondage that Christ commanded us to experience. Everything that God created is beautiful. Everything is good. But we can't hold on to anything. People in this world should not be obsessed with the things of the world. When they allow themselves to be obsessed, they allow themselves to be mastered by the things of the world.

It takes a great dysfunction to produce a great function.

Thank you Lord for saving me from a difficult situation. Through someone you helped me at a crucial time to pay a bill, and thus helped me avoid unpleasant consequences. You have saved me yet again.

Don't teach out of fear. Teach because you love. There is no fear in love.

A prayer to God is a very great thing. If someone prays for you it is a remarkable thing. A prayer is a beautiful offering to God. If one is praying for another, how wonderful that is. How it illustrates this person's care for the other. But we must not stop with prayer as long as we can do something more. If there is something more that we can do, then we must go beyond prayer and help this person.

If there is a person who is hungry, and if I can feed him, I should feed him. That for me is more important than praying for him. Yes, I will pray for him, but I will feed him first. When someone is in need, and he wants me to help him, and if I can help him, I will help first.

To see Satan in everything is to be Satan-conscious. I'd rather be God-conscious.

Develop the art of listening quietly and you will hear what you will not otherwise hear. And no matter what you hear you will learn a thing or two.

Those who live by the sword must be ready to die by it.

There is only one approach that appeals to me: the direct one.

Where sin abounded grace abounded even more. So don't be alarmed by your own sinfulness. If you are indeed aware of it and are pained by it you have received much grace already.

A life for God is all about taking risks. In fact there is no such thing as a risk-free life for God.

If we feel free and strong right now, then we will not need God at all.

She does her best. Her best may not be good enough. Her best may be your worst. But live with her best as long as she does her best.

One's entitled to one's mistakes.

If you belong to Christ, you can't sell your soul to Satan now. It is not yours to sell any more. When you accepted Christ He became the owner of your soul. Only He can sell it or give it away. And He will do neither.

If you are uncomfortable about Satan that is a good thing. The people who belong to Satan are so comfortable with him that they do not even know that he exists.

Satan is the Prince of this world. But God is the King of the universe. So decide for yourself who is bigger.

If Satan is telling you anything to discourage you from seeking God, it is so because He sees you as someone who belongs to the other camp. If you belonged to his camp, he will not waste any time with you.

Remember the mystery about weakness. When we are weak, then we are strong. It is when we are weak that God works best. So don't be afraid to be weak in God's sight.

I certainly like and seek human approval. But the more I seek it, the less I am satisfied by it, and this will eventually turn me away from it. Or at least I will not crave it any more.

We should pray for a heart that seeks God above all things. Yet distractions serve a purpose. The more we are distracted the more we are aware of what we really want to follow. I think distractions are only distractions. The obsession will outlast the distractions.

If there is evil in your life face it. And overcome it with good. But you must not run away from it or pretend that it does not exist. If Christ is in you, then He is bigger than the evil in your life.

I admire those who say that God never fails. Surely their faith experience is remarkable and God performed to their satisfaction without fault. But is this the consistent experience of all those who believe in God? Is there no such thing as disappointment with God? Books have been written about sour experiences in faith. Job, a character in the Bible, posed the most troublesome questions concerning God's fairness. Obviously there are deep questions and superficial answers. Yet the affirmation that God never fails is not superficial. It is the profound conclusion of faith that precedes experience, and even negates inconsistencies in that experience. It is profound because it sees God in its entirety as victor over every difficulty and champion of every person who entrusts his soul with him. It is profound because it sees the totality of what God is and does, and it does not limit itself to fragmented reality, which is what this earthly existence will allow us to experience.

Good intentions are worthless if you can't carry them out.

The surest seeds to sow are seeds of love. There is no absolutely no way you will not reap from these.

Believing in who God created you to be and believing in yourself minus God are leagues apart. I subscribe to the one and decry the other.

When you've done every desperate thing and fretted over something till you're exhausted, it is time to be still and know that Someone is God.

Either live in dread or live in hope. It is your choice. This is what I say to myself and to you.

You can easily believe in good as you believe in evil. You can easily believe in positive outcomes as you believe in negative outcomes. But do throw in your lot with one or the other. It does shape your life.

When you say, "What is the use?", and still go on, the work is no longer being done by you.

This is what I have learned in my walk of faith. God is unpredictable in His predictability. He does good but in His own way and in His own time. Any guesses regarding his modus operandi is an utter waste of time.

Christians should not make promises that they cannot keep. Even unbelieving people avoid that.

If you believe in God expect to be saved.

God doesn't test me so that He would know. God tests me so that I would know.

Little man, why do you fear? You can't do it. But God will. Just trust in Him. It won't be easy. But there is no other way.

Nothing good lives in me is a good place to start with God.

Should we fear God? Or should we love God? I'd rather love God.

Just now I grumbled against God. I said that I had enough of what He has given me in return for my service. But will I permanently feel this way? Or is this a temporary, nervous reaction to relentless trouble? I believe that temporary feeling is nothing. Permanent feeling is everything. The truth is my hearts beats for nothing but God. This has been the condition for the last ten years or so. I see nothing temporary about it.

Under pressure I appear to wilt. And then I recover. I know why I do. I feel no shame before God, for I know he knows everything about me.

To listen to the ordinary cares of people one requires extraordinary grace.

God, give me the grace to consider everyone, despite my own troubles.

Speaking the truth is important. But considering the feelings of the person to whom we speak the truth is even more important.

How painful are honest words! Not sweet, but painful.

God gave me a voice and the words to go along with it.

Anyone can speak kindly. But only a few can speak truly.

The mouth and the heart can speak two different languages. Some who know their hearts have learned to conceal them.

Even that despicable one next to you is God's child. Don't fall into disdain. Fall into awareness.

When you have nothing, you will be grateful for something.

We are all rather paltry beneath our glorious skins. The moment we understand our littleness is the moment we grow.

When we reason beyond what is revealed, we are in the devil's territory.

The answers are all in there. They just don't make sense now.

God lets us perform till we are found out.

As far as God is concerned, I don't question the madness He brings.

If you are dependent on human approval you'll never get anything done.

To speak what is on my mind, I need only my consent.

Give to everyone who asks. Give him more than he asks. This is what Jesus said. And you can't run away from that.

Some who have tasted my love will remember it more. Because I loved them even after their disgraceful behaviour.

God is in love with the little and the paltry human. He is not in love with glorious Man.

Trouble makes me desperate. Desperation makes me violent. Violence enables me to take the kingdom of God by force.

What is the value of a person's compliment to me, even if he were to call me great? I am little. I know it and I am content with it.

God makes sense. But not always.

God will not abandon. I should know that by now.

God brought me all the way here. He will not abandon me now. No matter what my mind whispers, God will not abandon His child. And that is exactly what I am.

I'll wait for God even if He is late.

Is your makeover cosmetic or spiritual? Is your soul troubled enough to get you on the right track? Or is this a role you play to be safe in this world of Man?

Let us respect our elders, and care for those who are dependent on us.

God bless all the old people in the world today. Let us treat them with love and respect. For they are treasures given to us by God.

I expect God to save me even when my mind tells me otherwise.

Decide to share even if you are kicked out for it.

What's in your mind may never be erased. So be careful about what you put into it.

God does not speak to the stubborn. He silently leads him almost to the point of destruction.

The only way to preserve beauty is not to corrupt it.

If you have a thing of beauty then use it well.

Once you cut off the head, of what use is the tail?

Every time I thought that I would lose it I would keep it. Such has been the journey with God. I have always expected to lose and been surprised to win.

If I have repented and done good today is that really to my credit? Have I not resisted correction for such a long time and done what is evil so persistently that my reformation at this time is not creditable at all? Is my change of mind really an act of wisdom? It is more an act of defeat, the defeat of the self, the crushing of selfish hope.

Even when we give, we always ask, what will we get out of it? We do everything seemingly altruistic with an ulterior motive to please Someone up there. We even force ourselves to love Him because that is most advantageous for us in the long run. But could such love be love? Could such giving be really giving?

The question then is not, shall we do good? But why should we do good? For whose good are we trying to do good?

When Christians make promises and don't keep them, we know why they need Christ.

In one minute God can change that situation around. The question then is, do you believe that God can do such a thing? And if you do are you expecting God to do such a thing in your life? And if so, are you willing to wait for that event indefinitely?

Do good even when no one is watching.

Don't say it is too hard. Say it is manageable. Anything is possible with God. Just believe that and expect things to work out.

From a teacher of God's ways I have graduated into a student of God's ways. Now, that's progress.

I don't know what this means. I don't even want to find out what this means. I leave the matter with God.

This is God's promise to all of us: "I will give you shelter if you would only come to me." Let us go to God today.

"I need to believe that something extraordinary is possible." How I prize that line from the movie, "A Beautiful Mind"! It revitalizes my life every day.

Why should I give up on God now? He brought me all the way here. And though He seems late, which He usually appears to be, I also know that He always saves somehow.

You may feel little and insignificant and do not see much hope in life. But God cares about you and wants to help you. In fact He wants to do His best for you.

When nothing seems possible, that's when God will do it for us.

By blessing the Lord, I begin my work for Jesus Christ on my new computer "GodInSam"

You can read the entire Bible and still not know God.

The reason why we do this work is to let people know that there is a God and that we worship Him, and that He is good, and that He answers our prayers, and that we need Him, and that without Him we will not be complete, and that without God we will be nothing.

Why should we wait for God to reply to our prayer? What is the benefit of waiting? Waiting increases our trust in God because the more we wait the more we have to trust Him. If God does grant our requests immediately then much trust cannot be expressed. But when waiting is involved a higher degree of trust is required. Patience is involved. Patience is important for the development of faith. Without patience faith cannot grow and will even remain in the infantile stage. For faith to grow, it must be tested. And the best kind of test is waiting.

When my work for God on YouTube came to a standstill because of a computer failure I wondered if it were so by divine design. Will this be the end of my work? Has it ceased to appeal even to God? Have I failed God in a significant way? Are people right in not encouraging me to go on? Yes, there were many questions. And the answers seemed scary. But a decisive reply from heaven came three months later, and was confirmed today in a miraculous provision that could have come only from the Lord. A few days ago stunningly a new computer stormed into my life, and even as I reeled in shock at the quickness of it and the impulsive nature of my procuring it, my internal fears were quietened today by a massive move of God to supply certain urgent needs that arose alarmingly from my excessively bold decision to buy a laptop in the most straitened circumstances. Yes God provided convincingly and stunningly, erasing whatever doubt that still lingered in my mind about my adventurous decision to throw caution to the winds and get what I wanted to continue my task of love

Friend, I pray that God be with you and comfort you in this time of distress. May He give you the strength to surmount whatever difficulty has come your way. Do not be dismayed, for your God is no deserter. He always walks with you and comforts you with His presence. Take strength in knowing that. And be well.

Blessing a creation of God is an act of devotion to God.

God has yet again proven His great faithfulness in my life. After three months of painful waiting and uncertainty regarding the future of my ministry, God has supplied me what I need and more than what I need. He has given me a beautiful and capable laptop to do my work for God on the Internet, and He has provided me the means to live in circumstances that threatened to be rather daunting. But with God all things are indeed possible. The first possible thing is an answer to a desperate prayer. Yes God answers prayers and delights to give to His children more than what they ask or imagine. I am the proof for that. Praise God. He is indeed faithful!

Thank you friends for your prayers. God has mightily answered them! He has supplied my needs abundantly today. God has rushed in with help just at the time I needed it most. Our God is an awesome God and His people are wonderful and caring. Thank you again. And may God bless you and supply all your needs.

O dear friends, God has been good to me today. He has supplied my needs in the nick of time. And He has supplied abundantly. Thank you God.

When we are in love with the created human body and not make the Creator the object of our love, we are in love with nothing.

All help comes from God even if people bring it.

Some day I hope that God will reward me for my silence when I really wanted to speak my mind.

My beautiful Lenovo Y510p with Intel Ci7 processor and full HD display has become my new tool of love. Born on 30 August 2014 "GodInSam" will take the love of God to places where it is not even suspected.

My new computer "GodInSam" is now sitting on my desk. It's a beautiful Lenovo Y510p with an Intel Ci7 processor. It is more than what I wanted. I bought it risking too much. After carefully discussing with my family and getting their consent I used household money for purchasing this laptop. We felt that it was absolutely important that I continue my video work immediately. Even my workers gave their support and encouraged me to do something that could affect them financially. In fact one of my workers has been long urging me to go for the laptop as soon as an opportunity presented itself. Finally an opportunity came at the end of August. I took the risk of making the down payment for a computer, which was more expensive than what I had in mind. But the store gave me a huge discount and granted me two additional years of warranty free of charge. God be praised for His goodness in my life. Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement. God's work through me will now go on in all its facets. I look forward to good times. I send my love to you all.

Sayings Of Samuel Godfrey George - October 2014

Life is meant to be enjoyed. Let's enjoy it with others. And let's let others enjoy their lives as well.

What I did in the last seven years was not easy. It could not have been purely my work. For I know myself and my limitations. I have carried out a sustained work for God despite my limitations and inclinations. And though I have not received any great reward for all this striving, I am still motivated to get up every morning and share my understanding of God with a world that is at most times unresponsive to my efforts. This is the exceptional work that God is doing through me.

Let's rejoice in this: because of Jesus Christ we know what love is. Let us know this love and learn to receive it, so that we can share it with others.

When I look around there are mountains to climb everywhere. Yesterday I climbed what seemed like a daunting mountain with God's help. But there are so many more mountains. And the sight of them makes me feel sick with dread. I have heard that God is faithful. In fact I know that God is faithful. He has saved me from many dangers. He has kept my life and work going somehow. But as I now stare into a terrible horizon marked by many seemingly unscalable peaks, I turn to God in urgency again. And I say, "Lord, you have brought me this far. Now you may have to carry me to the next place. I fear that I may not be able to walk any more." And I anticipate the answer that will come from His lips, "Fear not, I am with you." Beautiful are the words of faith. But terrible is their experience.

Today God met my needs in the nick of time. And He'll meet yours. Don't give up. God is good despite our worst doubts.

O Lord, I cannot go on without help. I need help very soon. And all doors seem closed and barred. Please help as soon as you can. What You have asked me to do You must enable me to do. Help and support me as You alone know how.

If someone needs your appreciation appreciate. If someone needs your acknowledgement acknowledge. If someone needs your wish today wish. Give to everyone what he needs from you.

Don't be sparing in your giving today. Give to people what they want. Delight yourself in delighting others. There is no greater joy and no greater way to live.

It appears that God has abandoned the world and left us irreversible victims to the tyranny of the devil. This is how it may seem to the regenerating soul that is being transformed by the inner working of God. Everybody else who does not believe in the spiritual world, may only see a difficult life in a bad world made by nobody that is worthy of worship. And whatever improvement that can be made in such a world may be seen as possible only by collective human effort grounded in scientific knowledge, secular ethical principles and global tolerance of human eccentricities and excesses. But those who truly know God know that he is still an active participant in world affairs as well as personal ones, albeit an apparently weak one. But his apparent weakness is indeed his hidden strength. For in the heart of the believer glows an inextinguishable fire to convey the love of God to a generation that only knows a perversion in the name of love. Indeed God lives in weak, imperfect humans moulding and shaping them into unlikely foes to the demonic powers that control the world.

If everything is absolutely certain, then there is not much point in waiting to see what might happen. We are required by God to wait, for waiting is always a test to find out if we could wait hoping and trusting in God despite our greatest fears and doubts. If the outcome of our waiting is absolutely certain there is no point in waiting, unless the test is for our benefit, so that we may discover a glorious truth about ourselves.

Does God wait? Does he know the pain of waiting interminably for what might not come? I believe he does. And that is why we are required to wait on several occasions in our path to godliness.

To speak the word of God is power indeed. But to speak the word of God without knowing the heart of God and without learning to love like him, and without the ability to endure suffering and trials while waiting patiently for great lengths of time cannot be identical to the way God uttered those words.

And there is a further truth to our vulnerability to the scheming of the devil. We possess at the very core of our being cravings that are similar to the devil's own cravings. The devil desires to overturn and distort every God-ordained purpose and design, and the appeal of such modifications and distortions is much greater than the appeal of the true purposes of God to our original sinful nature, which is identical to the fallen nature of the devil. In our unregenerate state we are much like the devil without his consummate power.

And this is the devil's great trick. When he mixes his lie with the truth, he makes the truth stand out so much that his lie appears nearly insignificant. For the truth he projects stirs up our basic needs so much that any warning that we might have received from God vanishes into thin air.

The devil is not merely a liar. He is a liar who speaks half the truth.

The greatest wisdom is not to doubt God when he appears false.

The greatest daring is the daring to be yourself.

You must go on despite virtually nothing happening. And that's what going on is in the God kind of work.

There are some people who WILL always be what others CANNOT be. And I am thankful for that.

If you have to wait, then wait. Wait patiently. Wait well. Wait by blessing someone or something, not by cursing someone or something.

Today my channel is exactly seven years old. This day in the year 2007 I uploaded my first video, "The Lord's Prayer" on YouTube.

I've heard it said, "Don't be a people-pleaser. But be a God-pleaser." Admirable as the concept is, it is conceivable that some will attempt to please God by doing good even when they are not sincerely doing those acts. They will do good even when they don't feel good about what they do, just to please God. But is that the way to please God? Is God pleased when we act under duress, or out of fear of what He might do if we act badly? I don't think God will ever be pleased by good actions without good intentions.

If I do an act of love today, let it not arise from fear. If I send you a note of thanks for something that you did, let it not be out of fear of what you might think of me if I didn't express my thanks. Let me do something good because it is good to do good. It ennobles the doer as well as the receiver. And if I live a good life for God let it not arise from fear of what God might do if I live rebelliously. Let it be for the pleasure of living a good life. For doing good is the greatest pleasure, if you know how to do it. And that is the pleasing kind of life God desires for us, but never imposes on us.

You should do the right thing in every situation. And the right thing is doing something not because of what someone might think or even what God might think. It's doing it for the pure pleasure of doing something right, without the expectation of anything beyond it.

Today I completed seven years of my video work for God on YouTube. I consider it a ministry for it is an act of ministering to God's people for the sake of God. Some may wonder what's in a number, even if the number is 7. Some may even question the joy that I feel in speaking for God for seven continuous years. But I know why I am happy. I was once lost and now I am found. I was once dead and now I am alive. This is the seventh year of my spirit-filled life about to pass and an eighth year is knocking on my door. Yes I will rejoice, for much has been done through me. Much that would never have been done, had God not touched me, had I not responded to Him desirably, has been accomplished.

If this were my last day or if this were yours, have I said all that I wanted to say? Have I shared the blessing with you? Have we felt the connection? Come to me, you who stand there with the desire to walk into my being. Come to me. 

Someone wondered why I do not hold the Bible when I speak. She thought that I would be more credible as a Christian teacher with a Bible in hand. I cannot agree. I rarely hold a Bible in my hand while speaking before the camera, but whatever I say does have its origin in Biblical truth. Biblical truth itself is not easy to define or narrow down to a certain way of life. In fact the Bible is not always very clear about everything, and leaves certain things unsaid. It is important to make sense of it in the light of the advances made in science and other branches of knowledge. And it is even more important to temper one's message with compassionate understanding and tolerance.

If we do our part, which is praising, then God will do His part, which is blessing. Let us not forget to thank God today. Let us not forget His many acts of love and kindness in our lives.

I am grateful to be a servant of God. God has blessed me much and kept this work going for seven years. But right now I am in a place of great difficulty. Please pray for the work that I do. Let this work continue. And let me be free to do it. At the moment I am under severe financial strain. I pray for God to send me help. Every day is a stiff challenge. And every bill seems like a mountain to climb.

Instead of voicing our fears let's voice our faith.

There is only one way to do it. Just do it. Leave the thinking behind.

What stays in the mind only for a while is not worth keeping.

The reason why I speak about God is that others may know Him and be saved so that they may be with Him eternally. If they do not know God and if they do not worship Him they are in danger of being eternally separated from Him. This is what prompts me to speak about God. And this is why people speak about God. This is the reason why people do work for God. This is the reason why ministries are conducted. Because there is this fear that if no one ministers to certain people, they may not know God and they may not worship Him, and as a consequence they may be separated from God for ever. So the need for speaking about God is this: that others may know Him and believe in Him and worship Him and be united with Him forever. This is why it is important to speak about God.

Whether God allows evil is a question best not answered by Man. Our answers are at best guesses, and may well be poor guesses. The relationship between God and Satan is most enigmatic. His access to God and his ability to command God's attention and even his ability to provoke God are just areas that cannot be explored beyond a superficial level. If God is good and great, then He knows what He is doing. And whatever He is doing, as terrible as it may look must be eventually good. Otherwise we may all start seriously considering a God who is just not as good or as great as we made Him out to be.

To work on despite very little reward takes extraordinary determination. Let the hard-working one with little rewards focus on that today.

Today let me forget my own problems, and think about another person's problems. There are people suffering in the world. And they need my prayer. Many times a prayer is all that we can offer. And it is most precious in God's eyes. And those whom we pray for will be benefited by it.

Don't think about what you don't have. Think about what you do have. And think about what you will have. God is good. He has given. And He will give.

Can base passions be understood?

Don't be upset. There is a God in heaven, and he hears you and will help you.

Those who look here and there will learn the hard way to look in front of them.

Great sanity comes from great insanity.

If a man truly loves God, he will seek Him. And the divine nature will follow. It will coexist with his human nature till it subdues it. But the human nature never dies as long as one remains human. The man in question may forget to feel as he ought to feel. His heart may harden for a while, but the divine nature will not let go. It is a striving nature and it is a winning nature, and it will not rest till it has what it desires. If we trust in God, we will not worry about godliness. It is an attribute which only He can confer in His way and in His time.

Rejoice in what you can do. Don't be worried about what you can't do.

If we were only less concerned about our spiritual welfare and more joyful in the fact that Christ died for us even while we were sinners and washed all our sin-guilt away, then we might just experience some happiness today.

Only the divine can make you less human and more divine. So stop trying to do it yourself.

Those who desire the divine nature resist the human nature. They consciously position themselves away from what is natural and offensive to the divine nature. This is the battle against sin. But sin itself should matter less because of what Jesus did. If we are still overly concerned about sin, and not rejoice enough in what Christ has done, it shows our lack of confidence in Christ's accomplishment on the cross. If we truly love God, our thoughts will have to eventually follow him, and so will our deeds. One last thing. There is no way we cannot sin. Even if we sin only once in the remainder of our lives, we are still unworthy of entering into God's presence. Our worthiness does not come from being sinless and resistant to sin. It comes from placing ourselves in the sinless Christ by faith. There our confidence must lie. And our confidence is best expressed in joy and peacefulness, not in a state of inner turmoil and doubt concerning our own nature and its deeds.

Have I got the time for you, that is the question. Time that will not come back, time that will most probably be spent without any profit to me.

If you see a demon today face it.

Move on. Live your life without hindrance and without obstacles. Strip away the obstacles. You have the power to do that. You have been equipped with everything that is required for the godly life. You may not believe it. But it's all in there. You have to take out every armour that is in there. You must take out every weapon that is in there. And God has given you every weapon that is required to fight against the evil forces in this world.

Before he fell Man was in total unity with God. This was the time when a sinless Adam and Eve enjoyed total communion with God. This perfect communion was restored to Man by the atoning act of Jesus, and thus today, despite sin-marred bodies and souls, Man can still commune with God as he ought to and used to.

This is the realization. You and I, who have accepted Jesus Christ, do not have to worry any more. We are free. We are free to live our lives as God wants us to live our lives. We are free to pursue the light without the fear of darkness. We can embrace the light. We can seek the things of God without any fear and without any hindrance. And even if the devil were to tell us that we cannot do that, that we cannot seek the light, that we are still in darkness, tell him that it's an absolute lie. And you can expose his lie and say, "You are a liar. You have been called a liar by the Lord Jesus Christ, and He speaks no lies. He speaks no untruth. The Lord Jesus is the Truth. He is the Way, The Truth and the Life. And if He calls you a liar, you are indeed a liar. And so what you say to me today is also a lie." Say that to him. Tell him that he is a liar. And move on.

We are now sinless. God regards us as sinless because He who was not sin became sin for our sakes, and since He became our sin we became His righteousness. Jesus is righteous. He is the Son of God. When He came down to earth He was most certainly the only righteous man who ever lived. And when He died for us as a righteous man He was the perfect sacrifice for our sins. And thus our sins have been wiped away. And because they have been wiped away we are seen as sinless by God, even though we may still sin for we are still in the flesh, and as long as we remain in the flesh, we will sin.

This is the realization. Sin is terrible. Sin is horrible. Sin separates Man from God. And Man is not meant to be separate from God. Man should be united with God. Man was made by God for God. The purpose of Man is to be united with God. But sin separates Man from God. A sinful man cannot enter the presence of God. The Bible says all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. No human being can ever approach God because of his or her sinfulness. And this enormous problem of separation was solved by the Lord Jesus Christ when He died for the sins of humanity. At that moment He removed the curtain between us and God. So no longer is Man separated from God. Jesus Christ has thus united God and Man.

Even rubbish is for a season.

You're not doing yourself any favours by being negative. Rather be positive and fail than be negative and fail.

And there's something greater than prayer. It is giving. A person who prays but does not give will be less than the one who never prays but does give.

You may say that prayer is also giving. But it is not the greatest kind of giving. There is something that one can do above praying. It is giving away what is most valuable for the sake of another.

Praying is only half the job. Believing is the other half.

It is when I sin that I know.

It is better not to believe in God rather than to believe in Him and doubt His gracious love and forgiveness.

The tragedy of the human being is that he cannot accept the love that God freely and graciously bestows on him. The human tries to merit that love and fails miserably.

God forgives even before you repent of your sin. Jesus Christ clearly proved that on the cross. Every time He said that a person's sins were forgiven the person in question did not even ask for forgiveness. God has truly forgiven. His work is truly finished. Let's not try to write a needless and painful epilogue to His finished work.

If you want to get to the heart of God you cannot walk away from love and forgiveness. The god who cannot love or forgive is not God.

Could God accept you just as you are and then despise your weaknesses? Haven't your weaknesses driven you to Him in the first place? How could you throw away what keeps you needing God?

There is no question that God sometimes miraculously saves. But does He always do that? Are miracles common? What should we do in the event of a miracle not happening? Should we cease to believe in a mighty God who responds in a timely way to urgent prayer?

The way God works you cannot do anything to merit His grace. It is best to cling to your unworthiness, yet at the same time trusting in His faithfulness to His promises to you.

What you do is not as important as why you do it.

You don't solve a problem by running away from it. You don't overcome a sin by escaping from it. Stand your ground and face what comes at you in the strength God has already given you.

How supremely confident we ought to be be in what God is doing in us, when we are actually afraid of what might happen to us.

Satan is most persuasive many times. But there comes a time when one must look beyond and see through his lies. And then one will see God who till then appeared unlikely to be the truth.

Yet our fears hold us back from surrendering all to God. We must abandon our fears altogether if we are to be with God.

I will surrender all to God. That is the key to being relieved. As long as I hold on to my baggage, I will never feel relieved.

I surrender all = I abandon all

We don't surrender to God until we cannot avoid it. We surrender only when all other hope fails.

Someone asked me what's in a name. Quite a lot I think. Remember Jacob who became Israel.

We all doubt. And we all learn to reject our doubts. That is the way of faith.

Sayings Of Samuel Godfrey George - November 2014

Hoping in God is a good thing because God never fails.

God clothed us because we cannot deal with nakedness properly.

If children should come to God, then adults must tell them about him.

We are saved not by external rituals or by religious activities. We are saved by God who gives us the grace to believe in His Truth, which is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Promises are for those who keep them. If you cannot keep it do not make a promise.

You cannot tear away from one to the other. You transit from one to the other.

If you keep replaying the old memories, rethinking the old thoughts and re-enacting the old rituals how will you change? To change you must discard the past and embrace the new, even if it is uncomfortable and painful.

Why believe in the lie even if it excites you? Believe in the truth even though it numbs you.

Love without someone even knowing.

Learn to work in absolute silence without any attention and applause. Focus only on Him who gives you the strength and the desire to work and seek only His face and desire only His approval.

When you have nothing to do, say a prayer.

You can awake lust by simply speaking about it.

Insincere gratitude is an insult. A thankless person is better than an insincere thanks-giver.

A most important lesson to learn is to say to thank you sincerely.

Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for dying for us on the cross.

Whatever be my trouble in life, I shall embrace it for Christ, who will let me exchange my cross someday for a a crown.

Today if you see a brother in need do not turn away from him.

Those who are without peace today, go to Jesus. He is our peace.

It's blessed to be the last. It's blessed to be the least.

It is a privilege to say "God bless you" to the one who has been unkind and unfair to you. It is the privilege of the Jesus Christ follower.

I will say this today, despite the silence and the lack: "The Lord will supply all my needs according to his riches in glory. The Lord is my shepherd, so I shall not be in want. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. I trust in the Lord, so disaster will not come near my tent." Yes I shall agree with God and disagree with my deepest fears.

Even a fool is sometimes wise, just as a wise man is sometimes foolish. Let us not be dismissive. Let us not taking anything for granted.

If we can forgive we will surely be conquerors.

If my work for God only pleased me I may be troubled by it. But there are people in the world who have found my work useful to them. Many have encouraged me to continue this work. Some have even supported me financially. I thank God for the encouragement and support. And as I go on, I believe that God will continue to encourage and support this work that he is doing through me. May I stick closer to God now, as I walk through particularly troubled times. I need help, a lot of help. I look to God to send it soon so that I may not faint and fall. During another troubled time in my life, when physical weakness threatened to knock me down, I uttered words from Isaiah. God gives strength to the weak and enables them to do what even young men can't do. He enables them to walk and run without growing weary, so that they do not faint and fall. He makes them soar like eagles. These words will strengthen me today, as I carry on my work despite a terrible weakness, confident that when I am weak, then I am strong.

As I go through trials and troubles in my life, I have cast all my cares on God because he cares for me. I don't think about tomorrow for today is very difficult to live. I took a walk yesterday speaking to myself God's promises to me, even as I was chilled by the realization that I have no bank balance or any material possession to rely on. I have two very elderly people at home who always require attention. I have dedicated myself to God and I devote my efforts entirely to telling people about him. I do no work other than this, and so I do not have an income. I have done this for many years now, and somehow God has always carried me through. Today I find myself in a precarious position. And this is what I tell myself as I wait on God to save me again. God saved me many times. Even this month God reached out to me graciously three times. So I expect him to save me again though the situation is getting more difficult and the answer from God seems more delayed. But I know that I have walked very far with God, so I cannot turn away from him. That will be detrimental to my faith and God's plan for me, which must be fulfilled at any cost.

If God answers all prayers quickly and affirmatively, he will not ask us to wait and trust in his goodness. Ultimately we must accept that God will act any way he chooses any time he wants. We believe that he will act in our best interest, and even if this is not apparent as we wait on him to answer our prayers, we must hold on to this belief tenaciously. Even in times of great darkness, when God appears discouragingly silent and uninterested, we must trust in his goodness and affirm it joyfully. And if we maintain this attitude we can be confident that God will act suddenly and decisively in a manner that is most advantageous to us.

God wants us to trust him for it is not easy to cast our cares on him and simply wait for him to act. He usually takes time, and this can be quite nerve-wracking, as I have found out myself on a few occasions. But if we are to know God's goodness, we need to trust him. And we cannot trust him without going all the way. And sometimes the way to God seems utterly perilous. And you will have fears for your own safety, as you abandon yourself to God. But going through this terrible ordeal is essential to verifying the strength of your determination to believe in God's promises, and this is the way you yourself know how unwavering your trust in God is. Ultimately as a writer put it, God will never fail us, though he will surely scare us to death a few times.

Instead of dreading the worst, hope for the best as far as God is concerned. He is good and wishes to do only good. And he has a good plan for all his children. His plan cannot harm but only do good. Trust in him and all will be well, no matter how dreadful it looks now.

Let's stay married. And let our marriage reflect God's love for us.

The only way to overcome evil is to face it with God.

God will not abandon you even if you feel abandoned. Those who hope in the Lord will not be disappointed. Hold on to this thought as your boat is rocked by the ferocious storm that is determined to wreck you.

God is here. And if you invite him, there's nothing to worry about.

To overcome evil you must have the stomach for it.

Remember that God is good even when he appears bad.

As far as praying is concerned never give up.

To be positive in order to avoid being negative is not a valid reason for being positive. Be positive where there is even a shadow of hope. In all other cases admit the truth even it sounds negative. Truth is also negative.

To be humble you must know who you are. To be brave you must admit who you are.

I am happy with Windows 8, for I had nothing before it. For three months I went without a computer. So it is a blessing for me to have any computer. That I have a beautiful Lenovo Y510 with an i7 processor and 8gb ram is just the sort of blessing that inspires a shout of "Hallelujah!" every now and then. Still I don't shout much.

We do good only when we expect nothing in return.

When you know what you really are you can only be humble.

Yet this should be the reason for our service. We should serve God because this is the right response to his lordship over us. He saved us, though we went astray. He loved us, though we hated him. He accepted us, though we rejected him. What could be a better response to God than the desire to serve him? Yet we don't serve him like this. We serve him because we expect a reward from him. We serve him because it makes us look and feel good. God does reward us, sometimes for no reason at all. At other times he rewards us for doing something good. We do good only when we expect nothing in return. For this is the way God does good.

We are serving God only to serve ourselves. We are serving God because we think it is doing right. And doing right will save us in the end. For there is a reward for doing right. So all that we are doing for God is doing for ourselves, for we know that we will ultimately benefit from all that we are doing for him.

We are all sex addicts. That is why God clothed us in the first place.

When the only thing you really have is hope, don't let it go.

Some of us just want to play with God's toys. We want nothing to do with him at all.

Humans in their natural state are consumed with lust for what God made. And they have no love for God at all.

We have consumed parts of Jesus that are palatable to us and spat out the bits that we cannot stomach.

Don't worry about tomorrow. Don't worry about what you will eat or drink or wear. Don't worry about your future. Store nothing for yourself on this earth. Sounds crazy to you? Sounds like Jesus to me.

God clothed us because we cannot deal with nakedness properly.

When nakedness becomes a way of life it is less disturbing. Yet it will disturb everyone who sees something in a human body that must be concealed. That is why even the nearly naked people in the world today take care to conceal certain parts.

When I suffer I write poetry.

When we see a naked human body we are unable to see it as we should.

Trust in God even if he is killing you.

I should not do this work so that I may be seen. I should do this work so that God may be seen. For it is he who gives me the desire to work. And it is he who supplies the tools for work as well.

Hardships were sent by God for a reason. So embrace them even if you do not know the reason.

For him or her who sees your need and does nothing, say a prayer.

In this world each person takes care of himself. In God's world each person takes care of the other.

Pray for a person who will not consider your need and extend help to you. Pray that God blesses that person and gives him or her a heart that will consider the needs of another and will be willing to give to the needy.

God, you supply my needs every day, whether I am conscious of it or not. You do miracles in my life, whether I am aware of it or not. You will not let me go, whether I believe that or not.

Let us not be consumed by fear. Let us be consumed by faith.

Don't give up hope no matter how hopeless your hope is.

It is more important to respect the living than it is to respect the dead.

Be with God. Speak to God. There is nothing better than God.

If you can do something right today do it. Don't delay it. Let nothing else occupy your mind. Devote yourself to doing right.

Apart from you Lord I can do nothing. Actually I prefer to do nothing without you.

I expect from God today. Pure and simple. I expect from no one but God.

Lord, I must show confidence in you. I confess that I am shaken by certain events in my life. Despite wonderful acts of your love in my life, there is much that distresses me. I'm worried and I should not be. For you God have promised to go with me wherever I go. My troubles are nothing compared to your overwhelming greatness and strength. Still consider the worm that I am and strengthen and protect me. Be with my family. Grant us your health. And help us overcome our many troubles. For that is your promise. Many indeed are our difficulties but you have promised to deliver us out of them all. And in this we must believe. Give us the grace to believe, and to trust in you today.

Thank you for the touch of love. That will be enough to carry me today.

Do right always. Do right especially when it hurts.

The way to know God is to love people who don't love you at all. It is to love those who hate you and curse you. It is to feel the hurt and still love. It is to be killed savagely and still love. It is to be utterly rejected and still love. It is to give everything and receive nothing. This will not emerge from reading but from learning. And learning is an act of grace involving considerable self-torture, and it happens when you live the truth of the holy book outside of it.

Let us remember this today. Our God is faithful even if we are faithless.

God, you have made every precious thing possible. Once I had nothing. Now I have everything.

It is not easy to be a parent when you know what your child will have to experience in this troublesome life on earth.

To be original, you must be in a zone of your own.

When nothing is happening, keep doing the good work.

Let us to learn from the flowers today, and live in peace.

Let me always be among the children of God for they will remind me of their glorious Father.

Let me be frustrated today to know how determined I am.

Frustration is a valuable tool to determine the worthiness of a pursuit.

If there is nothing new inside there will be nothing new outside.

God turned my death into life.

When death comes suddenly accept it and be grateful for the life that came before it.

Some turn away. Some close their eyes. Some look inward. Some will never know.

Some hearts are simply not warm enough. And it may not be possible to get them warm.

It is time to cast away hatred and little-mindedness.

Pain was given to the world for a reason, so that we may know ourselves and learn to accept the imperfections in this life. Joy lies in understanding the truth of pain.

If you are gracious, people may abuse your grace and wrong you even more. Be gracious anyway.

Let us not dwell on what seems impossible but let us dwell on what is surely possible if we would only believe. And all things are possible when we believe.

Tomorrow is not my business. Tomorrow is God's business.

God is doing a great work in my life. I sense that finally.

Every time when I'm in trouble, I say a prayer. I address my need. And God does something about it. Recently God sent me help that seemed like a bolt from the blue. God does provide. He certainly hears prayers.

I'm looking for the uncommon person who will notice what I say from the depths of my experience.

I don't aim to do a thing perfectly. I aim to do it well.

Lord, let our conversation never end.

An insecure husband should not blame his charming wife.

When people reject me I know who I am and also whose I am.

God's reality is the only reality that I wish to know. God's way is the only way that I want to follow. Let God enable me to get there.

If we only see what we want to see then we are not seeing all that we can see. That may suit us well, but will place us at a great disadvantage, when we need to decide.

There is no other way to experience the kingdom of God but to trust and obey.

Today God proved his great faithfulness once more in my life. He sent me a miraculous gift from a person I did not even think of as a giver. It happened without my asking anything. And this gift has come at a time of great need in my life.

What God started He will complete.

What I most need to get my back scratched is the willingness to scratch yours.

Trusting in God - if that isn't a hard thing, you haven't been tested.

Miracles are waiting to happen to those who will wrestle with God to get them. An all-night battle and a hip-wrenching pain may be involved, but above all a never-say-die attitude and an unshakeable belief in the benevolence of God is required.

God has His own way of doing things. And we must learn to appreciate it.

Whatever fiery trial you are going through right now, know that God is with you and that you will never be separated from His love.

Sometimes you have to do a thing over and over again to do it well. Don't be tired of repeating for this purpose. It may be necessary to strive to do something well.

We have the mind of Christ, whether we experience it or not. And we have everything that is required to live the godly life. To be sane is to know that God is good even when He appears to be anything but good.

Evil is unmade only in the place where it was made. To overcome wrong desires and unnecessary fears we must understand them. We cannot understand them without experiencing them. We must experience them to know them and to study how they wield power over our minds and hearts. We must find out why and how they lead us into unhealthy and undesirable behaviours. It is only when we get to the roots of these desires and fears, it is only when we see their origins that we recognize their basic distortions. And when we see these distortions we can fundamentally reject them and truly detach ourselves from the resultant compulsive desires and fears. We cannot rush this process.

Yesterday I wrote, "I expect a miracle from God." Today God answered with a miracle. Yes. Someone I never even considered as a helper offered to help. Praise be to God. He is wonderful.

Today we remember those who have passed away. Let them rest in Christ, and rise again as Christ rose from the dead. We thank God for the departed who have added value to our lives and shaped us in many ways. Let us honour the dead today.

Last year at this time God performed a major miracle in my life, and saved me from a great difficulty. This year I am faced with a new difficulty, which is nearly as great as that of the previous year. And I expect God to deliver me again miraculously. For God has promised to deliver His righteous one from the many difficulties in his life. And I cling to this promise today.

There can be no higher purpose than giving. Giving is best when it hurts to give. Let's give away what we are sure to miss.

Let us live to give.
