Test Yourself (C.F. Blumhardt)


You rack your brain to solve the mystery of the Savior, but you
would do better to examine the puzzle of your own heart. You
should be wondering why you are so impenetrable: why your
intentions, which are always so noble, are followed by so few
good deeds; why, despite your pious impulses, your life is so
lacking in genuine devotion; why, when it comes to really
getting things done, you turn out to be so feeble, so lame. You
are always sighing, it is true, but to what effect?



Peace Forever,
Firacub.

sorry fira

OK...lemme comment on the subject matter..

yes we study the bible-the kuran-the Gita for knowledge only

but these holy books were written to show us the path to salvation...

it requires action, not contemplation

yet very few read to understand and attempt to follow the narrow path...

'the only true christians of recent times were Gandhi-ji and Baba Amte'
- a quote from a sermon by a padre at Sunday mass for sunday catliks
