Sayings of Samuel Godfrey George, July 2017

I make no moral judgement. I appreciate how everything is useful, when properly applied.
God is good, and what he has provided is good. May we make use of it wisely.

Don't underestimate God today. You may not see any progress, but if you are still surviving, it is because of his grace.

Can humans kill animals? A more pertinent question is, do human beings kill animals? Some animals are regularly butchered and consumed by human beings. Others are killed for sport. Still others are killed wantonly, to slake an appetite for cruelty. But some animals are killed to prevent a bad situation from happening. Dangerous animals are occasionally killed to prevent injury to human beings. This may be necessary to preserve human life. Animals are essential to the balance of this world, and we humans need to preserve them well, still, the importance of preserving human life usually supersedes any consideration of animal life.

We've all done wrong. Confess your sins to God, and believe that he will forgive you always. For he knows your weakness and fear.

Nothing in this world can cure the pain of this life. Relief must come from outside, even outside the visible heaven.

This world is so imperfect that it needs a God. The pain is so unbearable that a divine pain-reliever is required.

Human beings may forget you. But God won't forget you. He has carved you on the palm of His hand.

All prayer is helpful, especially the prayer of the humble, unpretentious person is most potent.

There are two problems with unforgiveness: 1) if the disciples of Christ won't forgive others the latter's sins will remain unforgiven and 2) if they won't forgive others God won't forgive them.

Some transformations take time, so much time that you think that they are not happening.

There's life beyond your father and your mother. But there is no life beyond God.

Your attitude will determine what you get from God. If you are going to be like Cain, you will end up being disappointed.

I believe that my mother will never stop loving me. I believe this without effort or struggle. And no one taught me to do this.

No gritting of teeth is required for a miracle. Just believe that God is God, and that he will turn your night into day.

Yes, hope that God will help you. And do more than that. Thank him for his help in advance.

There is no trying in faith. Authentic faith is like breath, inhaled and exhaled unconsciously.

Pray to God. Don't give up your faith in God. He will make a way for you.

When all hope seems lost, there will be some left, if you are with God.

You think that you must do something. But this is what you need to do. You should trust in God. That is all you need to do.

God will not abandon the one who trusts in him. Will we trust in God? This is often the question.

It's good to have only God. It's good to be always looking for a miracle.

People will often disappoint you. Their love for you is not constant. They cannot always care for you. But some will surprise you.

The only one who will always care for you is God. It is to him you should turn for emotional support.

You're not an orphan. You are a child of God. Know your godly parentage, and return to your Father, who is waiting to receive you.

We should aim at obeying God, who said, “Give”. God told us to give. God commanded us to give. So, we should give.
