A Dimple On The Chin, The Devil

Somebody Should Tell Us, Right At The Start Of Our Lives, That We Are Dying. Then We Might Live Life To The Limit, Every Minute Of Every Day. Do It! I Say. Whatever You Want To Do, Do It Now! There Are Only So Many Tomorrows.

The World Calls For And Expects From Us Simplicity Of Life, The Spirit Of Prayer, Charity Towards All, Especially Towards The Lowly And The Poor, Obedience And Humility... Without This Mark Of Holiness, Our Word Will Have Difficulty In Touching The Heart Of Modern Man. It Risks Being Vain And Sterile.

Peace Is Not Merely The Absence Of War. Nor Can It Be Reduced Solely To The Maintenance Of A Balance Of Power Between Enemies. Nor Is It Brought About By Dictatorship. Instead, It Is Rightly And Appropriately Called "an Enterprise Of Justice" (is. 32:7). Peace Results From That Order Structured Into Human Society By Its Divine Founder, And Actualized By Men As They Thirst After Ever Greater Justice.

Is He Prepared To Support, At His Own Expense, Projects And Undertakings Designed To Help The Needy? Is He Prepared To Pay Higher Taxes So That Public Authorities May Expand Their Efforts In The Work Of Development? Is He Prepared To Pay More For Imported Goods, So That The Foreign Producer May Make A Fairer Profit? Is He Prepared To Emigrate From His Homeland If Necessary And If He Is Young, In Order To Help The Emerging Nations?

Idleness Or Boredom Has No Place In The Life Of A Christian.
