All Of Us Can Attain To Christian

We Have Freedom To Do Good Or Evil; Yet To Make Choice Of Evil, Is Not To Use, But To Abuse Our Freedom.

All Of Us Can Attain To Christian Virtue And Holiness, No Matter In What Condition Of Life We Live And No Matter What Our Life Work May Be.

The Truly Patient Man Neither Complains Of His Hard Lot Nor Desires To Be Pitied By Others. He Speaks Of His Sufferings In A Natural, True, And Sincere Way, Without Murmuring, Complaining, Or Exaggerating Them.

The Enemy Often Tries To Make Us Attempt And Start Many Projects So That We Will Be Overwhelmed With Too Many Tasks, And Therefore Achieve Nothing And Leave Everything Unfinished. Sometimes He Even Suggests The Wish To Undertake Some Excellent Work That He Foresees We Will Never Accomplish. This Is To Distract Us From The Prosecution Of Some Less Excellent Work That We Would Have Easily Completed. He Does Not Care How Many Plans And Beginnings We Make, Provided Nothing Is Finished.

There Are Many Who Say To The Lord, "i Give Myself Wholly To Thee, Without Any Reserve," But There Are Few Who Embrace The Practice Of This Abandonment, Which Consists In Receiving With A Certain Indifference Every Sort Of Event, As It Happens In Conformity With Divine Providence, As Well Afflictions As Consolations, Contempt And Reproaches As Honor And Glory.
