Valuable Selections from the Writings of George Müller - Softcover

George Müller (1805-1898) was a self-centered German playboy saved by a great and merciful God. Before his conversion, he was a liar and a thief, spending both money and self on the pleasures of sin. And yet God, having determined to display His great transforming grace, saved this careless and miserable man, making him into an able pastor of His people. It was in this pastoral calling that George Müller began what he is most famous forthe orphanages. The caring of orphans was certainly important, but for Müller it was only the secondary purpose for the orphanages. During the course of his pastoral labours, he saw many Christians in need of having their faith strengthened, and began to seek a way to help them. He was convinced that teaching was not enough, they needed tangible examples and living proof that God is faithful still, and hears prayer still....Far from being a great man of faith and prayer Müllers life is an example of Gods power to change a lying thief into a faithful steward, and Gods faithfulness to hear the cries of His children.
