1. Child the more you can forsake yourself, the more you will be able to enter me.
In the same way that peace within comes from desiring nothing outward, so forsaking of self inwardly unites you to God.
Follow me, I am the way, the truth and the life. Without the way, there is no going; without the truth, there is no knowing; without the life , there is no living. I am the way you must follow, the truth that you must trust and the life for which you must hope.
I am the straight way, the supreme, and the truth will make you free, and you will lay hold on eternal life.
truth, the truest life, the blessed life, the uncreated life.
If you abide in my way, you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free, and you will lay hold on eternal life.
2. If you would enter into life, keep the commandments.
If you would know the truth, believe me.
If you would be perfect, sell everything.
If you would be my disciple, deny yourself.
If you would possess the blessed life, despise the present life.
If you would be exalted in heaven, humble yourself in this world.
In you would reign with me, bear the cross with me.
Those who have my commandments and keep them are the ones who love me, and I will love them, and will manifest myself to them, and will make them sit together with me in my Father's kingdom.
My Friends, though this are not the words which I have written solely from my mind, they are the words which I too have thought about daily. How much do we want to join with our Lord almighty? Are we ready to sacrifice this world for him? To follow him all the days in which we are left here on this earth, waiting patiently, abiding by his law and his commandments, forgetting about the world and all the things in it and living for him only that we too can live an eternal life, a blessed life with our Father in heaven. "Yes, this is what I want more than anything" too release myself solely unto him that he may build me and mold me into what it is that his will shall be done within me. Let us pray.
Dear Father, we thank you for all you have given, for all the blessing, for your constant love that is unconditional and that stays within our hearts all the days we shall live. Let us continue Lord to prosper in your words, that we shall continue to strive to defeat these earthly temptations and live solely for your dear Lord, for you are the way, the truth and the life in each and everyone one of us. Be with us today and always Lord until we join you to live in peace and harmony within sin, suffering, and with eternal love. In Jesus name we pray, Amen...
