Humility Angel Men

More From Alexandre Dumas

Urge all of your men to pray, not alone in church, but everywhere. pray when driving. pray when fighting. pray alone. pray with others. pray by night and pray by day. pray for the cessation of immoderate rains, for good weather for battle.pray for the defeat of our wicked enemy whose banner is injustice and whose good is oppression. pray for victory. pray for our army, and pray for peace. we must march together, all out for god.

It is almost impossible to overestimate the value of true humility and its power in the spiritual life. for the beginning of humility is the beginning of blessedness and the consummation of humility is the perfection of all joy. humility contains in itself the answer to all the great problems of the life of the soul. it is the only key to faith, with which the spiritual life begins: for faith and humility are inseparable. in perfect humility all selfishness disappears and your soul no longer lives for itself or in itself for god: and it is lost and submerged in him and transformed into him.

What is an "instant" death anyway? how long is an instant? is it one second? ten? the pain of those seconds must have been awful as her heart burst and her lungs collapsed and there was no air and no blood to her brain and only raw panic. what the hell is instant? nothing is instant. instant rice takes five minutes, instant pudding an hour. i doubt that an instant of blinding pain feels particularly instantaneous.

There sure are a lot of these 'instant' products on the market. instant coffee, instant tea, instant pudding, instant cereal... instant dislike.

If your life is in disarray and you feel uncomfortable and unworthy to pray because you are not clean, don't worry. he already knows about all of that. he is waiting for you to kneel in humility and take the first few steps. pray for strength. pray for others to be led to support you and guide you and lift you. pray that the love of the savior will pour into your heart. pray that the miracle of the atonement will bring forgiveness because you are willing to change. i know that those prayers will be answered, for god loves you. his son gave his life for you. i know they will help you.

Consequently, if you believe god made satan, you must realize that all satan's power comes from god and so that satan is simply god's child, and that we are god's children also. there are no children of satan, really.

What makes will the best father in the world to me is that he's there, not just there in a way that's traditional. the emotional support he offers his children is immeasurable.

So, how can we live in joy - and how can we know that we're supposed to live in joy the way people tell us to - when we're believing thoughts that bring on sadness and frustration and anger and alienation and loneliness? when we're believing those thoughts, we think that's the world, rather than what we're believing about the world. we're like lost little children.

Children are the proof we've been here . . . they're where we go to when we die. they're the best thing and the most impossible thing, but there's nothing else . . . life is a riddle and they are the answer. if there's any answer, it has to be them.

Children can be disgusting, and often they can develop extraordinary talents, but i’m yet to meet any child who can stimulate his carotid arteries inside his ribcage.
