108 Quotations on Faith in God
From
Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourses
–
41 –
It
should be realised, however, that there is no greater friend for
anyone than God. He is beyond the reach of praise or censure. He
does not give up man on the ground of the latter's failure to come
up to His expectations. That is why God has been given the
appellation, Suhrid (a good friend). God desires no
offerings from any devotee. God is the only one friend who confers
benefits on devotees without expecting any return. Nevertheless
man does not readily accept such a friend. Only the man who
accepts God as such a friend and is guided by His advice can
understand the full meaning of Divine friendship. Faith of this
nature alone constitutes true Jnana.
