Man's desires and pitfalls are placed there so that I may do My work. When you give up totally, then the temptations will fade. I will never give up on you. Every slip will become harder and harder to bear and less easy to remedy.

Bear all and do nothing;Hear all and say nothing;Give all and take nothing;Serve all and be nothing.

Those who seek to know God must steel themselves to bear insult, injury and torture, with a smile.

If you are wealthy, be humble. Plants bend when they bear fruit.
