We Should Not Think That We Achieve

The Love Of God Is Not Taught. No One Has Taught Us To Enjoy The Light Or To Be Attached To Life More Than Anything Else. And No One Has Taught Us To Love The Two People Who Brought Us Into The World And Educated Us. Which Is All The More Reason To Believe That We Did Not Learn To Love God As A Result Of Outside Instruction. In The Very Nature Of Every Human Being Has Been Sown The Seed Of The Ability To Love. You And I Ought To Welcome This Seed, Cultivate It Carefully, Nourish It Attentively And Foster Its Growth By Going To The School Of God's Commandments With Help Of His Grace.

The Bread You Store Up Belongs To The Hungry; The Cloak That Lies In Your Chest Belongs To The Naked; The Gold You Have Hidden In The Ground Belongs To The Poor.

Men Whose Sense Of Taste Is Destroyed By Sickness, Sometimes Think Honey Sour. A Diseased Eye Does Not See Many Things Which Do Exist, And Notes Many Things Which Do Not Exist. The Same Thing Frequently Takes Place With Regard To The Force Of Words, When The Critic Is Inferior To The Writer.

To Whom Does Our God Say, 'in Our Image' (gen. 1:26), To Whom If It Is Not To Him Who Is 'the Brightness Of His Glory And The Express Image Of His Person' (heb. 1:3), 'the Image Of The Invisible God' (col. 1:15)? It Is Then To His Living Image, To Him Who Has Said 'i And My Father Are One' (jn. 10:30), 'he Who Has Seen Me Has Seen The Father' (jn. 14:9), That God Says, 'let Us Make Man In Our Image'.

Our Savior Was Crucified For Our Sakes That By His Death He Might Give Us Life And Train And Attract Us All To Endurance. To Him I Press On, And To The Father And To The Holy Spirit. I Strive To Be Found True, Judging Myself Unworthy Of This World's Goods; And Yet Not I Because Of The World, But The World Because Of Me. Think Of All These Things In Your Heart; Follow Them With Zeal; Fight, As You Have Been Commanded, For The Truth To The Death: For Christ Was Made 'obedient' Even 'to Death'
