God answers our prayers not because we are good, but because He is good.
We're going to bring our core message of hope and how God is a good God who's on our side.
Good God! This man should be writing dime novels.
With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
God's hand never slips. He never makes a mistake. His every move is for our own good and for our ultimate good.
With God, all things are possible.
For good people to do evil things, it takes religion.
Nobody ever got anything from God on the grounds that he deserved it. Haven fallen, man deserves only punishment and death. So if God answers prayer it's because God is good. From His goodness, His lovingkindness, His good-natured benevolence, God does it! That's the source of everything.
I didn't find my friends; the good Lord gave them to me.
God is good, and He cannot be anything else.
We act like God's only good when the outcome is good. We say, 'We've got a good God because I've got a good job.' But what if I don't have a good job? Does that mean God's not good anymore?
God is a good God, and the Devil is a bad Devil.
God never witholds from His child that which His love and wisdom call good. God's refusals are always merciful -- "severe mercies" at times but mercies all the same. God never denies us our hearts desire except to give us something better.
Affliction is not sent in vain, young man, from that good God, who chastens whom he loves.
God is not a magic eight ball we shake up and peer into whenever we have a decision to make. He is a good God who gives us brains, shows us the way of obedience, and invites us to take risks for him.
Oh, the world's a curious compound, with its honey and its gall, With its cares and bitter crosses, but a good world after all. And a good God must have made it-leastways, that is what I say, When a hand is on my shoulder in a friendly sort of way.
None of us can be as great as God, but any of us can be as good.
We have to do with God, to whom no one can look without the need of being good waking up in his heart; to think about God is to begin to be good.
But the God I don't believe in is a good God, a just God, a merciful God. He's not the mean and stupid God you make him out to be.
[The atheist believes] a world marked by so much injustice, innocent suffering, and cynicism of power cannot be the work of a good God.
Be faithful in little things, for in them your strength lies. To the good God nothing is little, because He is so great and we are so small.
Oh, dear God, thank you, you are such a good God to us. A kind and gentle and accommodating God, and we thank You oh sweet, sweet Lord of hosts for the smörgåsbord You have so aptly laid at our table this day, and each day, by day, day by day, by day oh dear Lord three things we pray to love Thee more dearly, to see Thee more clearly, to follow Thee more nearly, day, by day, by day. Amen.
From time to time there will be some complaints that we are pushing our people too hard. I don't give a good Goddamn about such complaints. I believe in the old and sound rule that an ounce of sweat will save a gallon of blood. The harder we push, the more Germans we will kill. The more Germans we kill, the fewer of our men will be killed. Pushing means fewer casualties. I want you all to remember that.
Good God, if our civilization were to sober up for a couple of days it'd die of remorse on the third.
