ATTEMPT GREAT THINGS FOR GOD,
THEN EXPECT GREAT THINGS FROM GOD!
===============================================
IT IS A UNIVERSAL LAW THAT YOU CANNOT GET ANYTHING IN THE WORLD BY GIVING NOTHING IN RETURN. YOU CANNOT GET A HARVEST WITHOUT SOWING A SINGLE SEED.
THEN EXPECT GREAT THINGS FROM GOD!
===============================================
IT IS A UNIVERSAL LAW THAT YOU CANNOT GET ANYTHING IN THE WORLD BY GIVING NOTHING IN RETURN. YOU CANNOT GET A HARVEST WITHOUT SOWING A SINGLE SEED.
YOU ASK FOR
EVERYTHING FROM GOD-- LIFE, GOOD HEALTH, PROSPERITY, MARRIAGE, A GOOD
FAMILY, A GOOD HOME, GOOD JOBS, WEALTH AND STATUS, ETC. ETC... THE LIST
IS ENDLESS.
YOU EVEN ASK FOR SALVATION AND HEAVEN AFTER LIFE.
BUT STOP FOR AWHILE AND ASK YOURSELVES:
"WHAT IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT YOU THAT HE SHOULD GRANT YOU ALL YOUR WISHES?
"HE DOES THAT SOMETIMES TO STOP YOU FROM PESTERING HIM FOR MORE AND MORE ALL THE TIME. JUST TO GET RID OF A NUISANCE..
'BUT WHY SHOULD HE GO ON DOING THAT ALL THE TIME?
"ASK YOURSELVES, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR GOD IN RETURN?"
" IF EVER YOU ARE CALLED UPON TO DO GOD'S WORK, YOU START COUNTING YOUR PENNIES, AND THINK OF DOING THE LEAST THAT YOU CAN DO FOR HIS SAKE..
"AND IN RETURN THAT IS WHAT YOU WILL GET FROM HIM WHEN YOU ASK HIM FOR ANYTHING-- PENNIES.
"WHY SHOULD GOD GO ON HELPING YOU ALL THE TIME WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD WHO ARE IN DIRE MISERY AND NEED HIS ATTENTION?
"THE INFERENCE IS SIMPLE: IF INGRATITUDE IS ALL THAT YOU HAVE TO GIVE TO GOD FOR ALL HIS FAVOURS IN LIFE, THEN HIS INDIFFERENCE WILL BE ALL THAT YOU WILL GET FROM HIM IN THE FUTURE..
'HE IS THE GUARDIAN OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE AND THERE IS NO NEED FOR HIM TO FOCUS HIS ATTENTION UPON YOU ALL THE TIME.. YOU WHO ARE NOT PREPARED TO SACRIFICE EVEN THE SPARE MOMENTS OF YOUR LIFE FOR HIS SAKE..
"THIS IS THE HARD TRUTH. FACE IT. THIS IS NOT DEVOTION OR EVEN FAITH ON THE PART OF A DEVOTEE.. IT IS SIMPLY HIS SELFISHNESS..
"IT ALSO EXPLAINS WHY MILLIONS OF PRAYERS IN THE WORLD GO UNANSWERED..
"THE SIMPLE REASON IS: WHY SHOULD HE? WHAT HAVE YOU EVER DONE FOR HIS SAKE? WHY SHOULD HE NOT GIVE MORE DESERVING PEOPLE IN MISERY HIS PRECIOUS BLESSINGS AND ATTENTION?.."
