Prayer Followed by Action


There is no true prayer if it is not followed by action. Prayer, therefore, and action. Action proceeding from prayer. To bear fruit, the seed must, first of all, be good, alive, vital; then it must be put deep into the earth, so the roots may receive nourishment; it must be covered with good soil, fertilizer and water. thus, it will germinate and grow; it will bear leaves, flowers and fruit. The meaning is clear; let us be alive and fervent for our sanctification; let us have deep humility. If gossip, calamities, suffering will come even from our most faithful; friends, let us wait for the help of God obtained through our prayer and generous self-surrender....nothing should stop us...and let us wait until God's time will come. we shall receive the reward in the future life: heaven! It is beautiful and lasts forever!
