Sometimes George felt the responsibility to be overwhelming. He never complained to the others, but the burden took its toll. At one time, he thought perhaps he would become a priest. But circumstances have destroyed that dream. The idea of living a pious, quiet life appealed to him. He wholeheartedly believed in God's word and the Catholic doctrine and thought he would make a good priest his faith and believe for now, eating at his insights because what he was about to do was completely the opposite of God's word. Lord George prayed silently. I have a problem. I believe in you. I believe in your word. But if I don't do what I must, I'll be breaking your commandment, not to honour my mother. If I do honour my mother, I'll be breaking a commandment not to steal. I cannot allow my mother, my brothers and sister to suffer any longer because you are loving God. I know you'll understand. If not, and if I must go to ****, then so be it. But I beseech thee to lay your cloak of safety and love upon my family. George made the sign of the cross and whispered, Amen.
