Why are you complaining about?
Not infrequently, in fact, in today's world, we feel lost. But the ' adventure of hope, take us further.
"If you voted in the service of God , because even compare your life to that of others, and you complain because they have such and such? Why do you regret to serve God because of some sacrifices that this entails? "(FX Nguyen Van Thuan).
This is one of our biggest flaws: complaining! Look at others and judge their actions ... "That one goes to church , beating his chest, but then he preaches well and scratching out badly! ", or look with contempt:" That one does not care the least of faith and life can to succeed, but I believe in God and I go all wrong. "
The words of the Vietnamese bishop, FX Van Thuan, (who spent thirteen years in prison, nine of which in isolation) rightly warns: "Why do you regret to serve God because of some sacrifices that this entails?".
Trusting God in every circumstance, even in adversity, this is one of the consequences of our faith. In this regard, St. Teresa of Avila prayed: "Let nothing disturb you nothing frighten you. Everything passes God does not change. Patience obtains all. Whoever has God lacks nothing. God alone suffices. "
Not enough ... we must be convinced to believe!
Even Van Thuan said: "Sometimes we complain that Christianity in today's society is an increasingly marginal, it has become difficult to transmit the faith to young people , that vocations decrease. One could go on to list reasons for concern ...
Not infrequently, in fact, in today's world, we feel lost. But the adventure takes us beyond hope. One day I found these words written on a calendar: "The world belongs to those who loves and knows better than to give him proof."
