Needs - Creator placed within us all means to meet them

10/09/2005

The Creator did not send his creatures into the world only to leave them poor, powerless and helpless. He has given them all the means necessary to provide for their material, emotional, intellectual and spiritual needs. But instead of managing on their own by learning to mobilize all these possibilities, human beings go and sit, kneel or prostrate themselves somewhere in order to meditate, to pray, to implore…Since their prayers are not granted, they end up questioning the power of thought and prayer. And when they finally deny even the existence of God, they take themselves for great philosophers. Well, the truth is that they are lazy and ignorant. If they knew how to work, they would be amazed to discover all the means the Lord has placed at their disposal.
