Vlog 277 – Faults My friend, yes, I know, we are human and therefore imperfect. But do you know what I’m saying? That it is not worth to sit idly by. Why do you think you live? I tell you? To give glory to God, serving Him, improving day after day with a continuous struggle. Fight? What fight? That of perfecting yourself, of course, because only those who pursue perfection, those who struggle daily to be like Christ, at death, live eternally in Heaven. If you are smart and want to be happy, you are interested in going to Heaven for all eternity. You see, yes, you will have to work. What are you going to do? How do you plan to overcome your faults? How do you intend to let go of those imperfections, big or small, that stop you, or make you fall back and stumble? Do you have any plans? Have one! Look, don’t think about the faults you have, don’t focus on them, I don’t want you to get upset or depressed. I repeat, do not think about your own faults, do not say: I am a super messy man, I have a terrible temper… No, enough! Think about the virtues that you lack, those virtues that you need to improve. Perhaps patience, humility, temperance? Maybe strength, prudence, or justice? Think calmly, take your time, analyze it and make your plan. In this plan there can be no lack of prayer, of course not, and do not forget the sacraments: confession and communion, so that God will help you and give you strength. Because the saints are not born saints, they are made saints with the grace of God. My friend, get rid of the annoying faults that do nothing but hinder, fill yourself with virtues and be happy walking behind perfection, holiness. You know, do your homework, make your plan and carry it out. To reap virtues! My friend, thank you. And always go ahead with faith. Victoria Bellido Durán |
