Believe in God and Trust in HIS Great Mercy
The ultimate aim of Jesus's Commandment of Love is to bring us1
onto the path of Eternal life. The purpose of the Commandment is to
govern our life in God's Grace and to discipline our weak human nature
on the path of Truth.

I spend my time in prayer and spiritual reading.
On this blog, I share the fruit of my contemplation — my spiritual writings and spiritual artworks.
My heart and my life is more focused on bringing unbelievers back to God — inspiring Faith in their hearts.
I pray that my life and my work become a worthy offering to God.

In the house of God
Where there is vanity1— there evil lives.
In a life of Love and Reverence and Sanctity2— there God lives.
1. A life devoid of faith in God; a life of pride which stubbornly defies God; a life of self-indulgence.
2. A life in which God is Faithfully believed and Reverently obeyed.

Closer to God, in Love
Sin keeps us far1 from God.
Love2 brings us closer to God and unites us with God.
1. If not repented, sin progressively succeeds in breaking our trust in God's loving Mercy and distances us from seeking God's Grace.
2. Love that believes in God; love that obeys God and reveres God.

Governed by God's Grace
Those whose life is not governed by the Commandments of God, feel easily lured by vanity1 and they easily commit everything that is shameful, unlawful and evil.
1. Things that go against the Reverence of God; things that are not beneficial for our soul etc.

Believing in Jesus Christ means...
Just believing in Christ's Passion and Resurrection is not going to save us from damnation- and lead us to Eternal life.
Believing in Jesus Christ means- acknowledging with all our heart that HE alone is our True salvation.
Believing
means, to trust God with all our heart and to submit our lives into HIS
hands, to live according to HIS Most Holy will.
Believing means, to acknowledge Jesus Christ as the Beloved Son of the living God, one with the Father and the Holy Spirit.
Believing means, to listen to Jesus's life giving words.
Believing means, to live with the Hope of receiving God's gift of Eternal life.
Believing means, to live as God's witness at all times.
Believing means, to live our life conscientiously in the honour of God.
Believing means, to believe in the Resurrection and the life everlasting.
Believing means, to live our life as one Brotherhood in the love of God.
Believing means, to Humbly wait upon God.
Believing means, to persevere in the Grace of God, till the end of our life.
Believing means, to acknowledge our sins before God.
Believing means, to give up our sinful ways.
Believing means, to live a new life of conversion according to Jesus's words.
Believing means, to produce fruits of Love, in keeping with repentance.
Believing means, to persevere henceforth in Jesus's way of life.
The
path of Believing in Jesus Christ; repenting to new life in Christ and
persevering till the end of life, is the narrow path which most will
find it difficult- we must pray for the Grace of God and strive hard on
this path.

Daily Reverence
Each day of our life is an opportunity to thank God; to praise God;
to believe in God; to repent; to do good deeds in Love and to come
closer to God.
We must live each day in a way that the virtues1 are praised2 through our work and our daily life, thereby respecting God's presence in our life.
Christian living is conscientious3 living.
1. Simplicity; Sincerity; Diligence; Faithfulness; Obedience; Kindness; Understanding; Forgiveness etc.
2. Each aspect of our character should be used to give reverence to God, as moment calls for/ as an opportunity comes our way.
Each day is filled with variety of moments and opportunities, to practice God's kingdom values.
When an opportunity comes our way to practice Diligence, we must do our best to praise the virtue of diligence through our work- thereby giving reverence to God.
When a moment needs us to be Humble, we must practice humility, thus giving reverence to God.
When a moment demands Obedience to our Superiors, we must be obedient- thus honoring God through the virtue of obedience.
When a moment requires our generous help to those in need, we must practice the virtue of Charity- thus praising God.
3. Strive to do everything perfectly to the best of one's ability- in the honour of God- no mediocre work.

God's saving help
When burdens of life weigh heavily on our shoulders, we must cling to God with all our Faith and all our Hope- HE surely comes to our rescue, to help1 in our distress.
HIS saving help comes to our rescue, the more we trust in HIM and make HIM our refuge and seek HIM daily.
The more we stay close to God, the more we feel HIS saving help near.
HIS saving help speedily comes to the rescue of all those who live according to HIS commandments.
1. Those who maintain faithful relationship with God, their cry for help is always heard.
HIS saving help is close at hand to poor and needy, with no one to help.
God will not listen to the cry of all those who bring dishonour to HIS name, by their deeds of unfaithfulness; those who maintain outward appearance of religion. Their plea for help and their distress will not be considered since they do not follow the way of God.
God always listens to the cry (for help ) of a repentant sinner who humbly acknowledges his sins and turns away from his sinful ways.
Those who humbly seek God's help must also be willing to accept God's will.
