When I posted my blog, “Blessed are they who weep, for they shall be comforted“, I know a lot of people didn’t really understand fully the depth of this wisdom. I didn’t understand it before, too.
How do I desolate myself?
How do I forsake my life?
How do I lose my own life?
It downright sounds like suicide is the best choice. And yes, my dearest brothers and sisters. Suicide is the answer.
Know that when you really want to FOLLOW CHRIST, you must remember what He did in His Life. HE DIED. He died for both those who love Him and those who loathe Him. This is what we should all aim to do, if we want to be REAL CHRISTIANS.
We must KILL all our earthly wants and desires- ALL our pride, our greed, our gluttony, our laziness, our lust, our selfishness, our anger and our jealousy. For ALL THESE ARE WHAT ROBBED US OF OUR CHILD-LIKE INNOCENCE AND TRUST in our Father in Heaven.
So whenever we’re feeling proud, greedy, gluttonous, lazy, lusty, selfish, angry and jealous of our neighbors- let us pray that we always remember to FOLLOW CHRIST. To ABANDON OURSELVES TO HIM because WE CANNOT TAKE CARE OF IT.
PRAY. PRAY ALWAYS AND NEVER LET ONE DECISION PASS WITHOUT PRAYING FOR IT. For we are all children of God, and like children- we don’t know what is best for us. We want a lot of things that are bad for us and push ourselves and others to get these- but our parents, Papa God and Mama Mary, they know what is best for us. They even gave us their Only Beloved Son to die for even those who nailed Him to the cross.
