YOU CAN BE SURE
You can talk about kindness at every moment, but if you
are not kind,
it will be useless for your own happiness.
*
Your hand can write beautiful pages under spiritual
inspirations;
however, if you do not stamp the beauty of those pages
onto your
spirit, you will not be more than a courier without
intelligence.
*
You can read marvelous books, with emotions and tears;
still, if you do
not apply what you have read, you will only be a bad
recorder.
*
You can cultivate sincere convictions in matters of
faith; nevertheless,
if these convictions do not serve to renew you for the
good, your mind
will be reduced to a mere hook whereon to hang religious
maxims.
*
Your capacity to offer guidance can discipline many
people, so
improving their personalities. Still, if you do not
discipline yourself,
the Law will face you with the same severity with which
it is utilised
you so as to perfect others.
*
You may know the lessons of the pathway perfectly and
may, in the
mortal eyes, pass to the gallery of heroes and saints;
but if you do not
practise the good teachings you know, the Divine Laws
will determine
that you always have to begin your work over again, each
time with
greater difficulty.
*
You may call Jesus: “Master” and “Lord”…; however, if you
do not
want to learn to serve with Him, your words will sound
hollow,
without any meaning.
