"We may fool other people with our speech and gestures, but God cannot be deceived. Our character is revealed in the choices we make, especially when no one is watching. Our interior life is the foundation of who we are; our exterior life is the visible and faithful expression of that foundation."
INSTEAD OF ASKING THE LORD TO DO WHATEVER WE ASK OF HIM, LET’S ASK HIM TO GRANT US THE GRACE TO DO WHATEVER HE ASK OF US.
AT SOME POINT IN EVERY PERSONS LIFE WE ALL HAVE TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION; “DO YOU BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST IS GOD?”
AND DO YOU HEED GOD’S WORD OF WISDOM AND TRUTH AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT?
FATHER HELP ME TO BE KIND AND FORGIVING TOWARDS MY NEIGHBOR AS YOU HAVE BEEN TO ME.
EACH HUMAN BEING IS VERY SMALL. EACH OF US IS LIKE A MICROSCOPIC DOT ON A MICROSCOPIC PLANET. OUR LIVES LAST LESS THAN A SECOND IN COMPARISON WITH ETERNITY.
YOU’LL ALWAYS BE OKAY, IF YOU FIRST SEEK THE KINGDOM OF GOD. SO STOP WORRYING AND BELIEVE.
“HAPPY THE PERSON WHO HOLDS OUT TO THE END THROUGH ALL OF LIFE’S TRIALS ! ONCE THEY HAVE BEEN PROVED, THEY WILL RECEIVE THE CROWN OF LIFE THE LORD HAS PROMISED TO THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.”
WHEN YOU ARE PUT TO THE TEST DO YOU SEEK THE LORD JESUS AND PLACE YOUR TRUST IN HIS HELP AND MERCY? HE WILL NEVER FAIL TO COME TO YOUR AID, BUT FIRST YOU MUST ASK HIM.
THE WORLD THE FLESH AND THE DEVIL. THESE THREE SOURCES CONSTANTLY SEEK TO UNDERMINE OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
IN THE END, THE TRUTH THAT GOD HAS SPOKEN THROUGHOUT THE AGES AND HIS HOLY AND DIVINE PRESENCE ARE ALL THAT MATTERS
THE GREATEST TEMPTATION WE CAN FACE WILL OFTEN COME IN THE AREA OF OUR GREATEST STRENGTH.
AT THE END OF YOUR LIFE, YOU WILL BE JUDGED BY YOUR LOVE
GOD LOVES EACH OF US AS IF THERE WERE ONLY ONE OF US TO LOVE. WHAT WE LOVE SHOWS WHAT WE PREFER AND VALUE MOST. DO YOU LOVE GOD ABOVE ALL ELSE? DOES HE TAKE FIRST PLACE IN YOUR THOUGHTS, AFFECTIONS, AND ACTIONS?
JESUS SAID:
I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE; WHOEVER BELIEVES IN ME, EVEN IF HE DIED, WILL LIVE, AND EVERYONE WHO LIVES AND BELIEVES IN ME WILL NEVER DIE.
THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS IN LIFE OR IN THE WORLD. EVERYTHING IS PROVIDENCE
IF YOU TRULY WANT TO HELP THE SOUL OF YOUR NEIGHBOR, YOU SHOULD APPROACH GOD FIRST WITH ALL YOUR HEART. ASK HIM SIMPLY TO FILL YOU WITH CHARITY, THE GREATEST OF ALL VIRTUES; WITH IT YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH WHAT YOU DESIRE.
CAN YOU IMAGINE STARTING A MOVEMENT WITH 12 OTHER MEN, WHO HAD VERY LITTLE EDUCATION AND NO POSITION IN THE WORLD? JESUS STARTED THIS WAY, AND HIS MOVEMENT IS ALIVE AND GROWING 2000 YEARS LATER. WHAT DOES THIS TELL YOU? DON’T LET THIS MOMENT PASS BY-FOR HE IS CALLING YOU NOW.”JESUS I TRUST IN YOU.”
GOD GAVE EACH OF US FREE WILL. WE CAN EITHER YIELD TO GODS GRACE OR RESIST AND GO OUR OWN WAY
WE MUST BE ON OUR GUARD LEST SATAN TURN US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD AND THE PATH WHICH GOD HAS CHOSEN FOR US.
