"If my God's ways seem strange, mysterious and difficult to me, and if the wishes I cherish sink quietly into the sea of worries, if the day that has brought me nothing but pain and suffering passes dull and heavy, then I can remember one thing: that God never makes a mistake!"
(Herbert Sack | Written in Stalingrad in 1943)
"When the Lord's thoughts are too high for me, the wells of His grace are too deep, when all supports are shaking helplessly, I lack strength and patience, when my gaze can no longer find a goal in anxious, tearful vigil, a spark of faith nevertheless announces that God never makes a mistake!"
(Herbert Sack | Written in Stalingrad in 1943)
"When my heart trembles in despair over unresolved questions, when I want to despair of God's love because ignorance rises, then I can gently place all my weary longing into God's hands and say with tears that God never makes a mistake."
(Herbert Sack | Written in Stalingrad in 1943)
"So be still, my heart, and let everything earthly and fleeting pass away, in the light above you will see that the paths he shows are good. And if you have to miss what you love most, even if it goes through cold, dark night, hold on to this blessed knowledge: that God never makes a mistake!"

Thoughts about 04. February
GOD is always looking for lost souls.
Seek to search for it with him. It guides you along thorny paths and barren stretches, across forest clearings up into the mountains and down into the valley. He guides you, but you always need your help. How wonderful it is to be allowed to follow him. You are looking for lost sheep with him, with GOD. You carry the message of salvation and God's love from place to place. To places where this love was previously unknown. You never know which soul you are helping, but you can confidently leave the successes to GOD. If you just follow him on his tireless soul search.
