What God does through us
“Believing that God can show us the way, we should maintain a strong faith, one which can affect the consciousness of others. To be able to affect the consciousness of others, we must of necessity be prepared to sacrifice ourselves, making our bodies a part of the effort.
The peacemaker’s catch phrase is ‘self-sacrifice.’ If it were not for self-sacrifice there would be no peace movement. It doesn’t mean that everyone should sacrifice his or her life. If we pray and our efforts are still insufficient, God will help. What is important is not what we do but what God does through us.”
— Ham Sok-Hon, 1984
