Quotes by Georg Neumark

Sing, pray, and walk in God's ways, faithfully do your own part, and trust in heaven's rich blessing, so it will be renewed for you; for whoever sets his trust on God, him he will not forsake.

Georg Neumark

Just be still for a little while and be content in yourself, as our God's gracious will and his omniscience arrange it; God, who has chosen us for himself, knows very well what we lack.

Georg Neumark

What good are heavy worries to us, what good is our woe and sighing? What good does it do that every morning we lament our misfortune? We only make our cross and suffering greater through sorrow.
