Dear Thomas,
the fruits of happiness cannot be seen until we fulfill our leverage of faith unto Jesus who opened the way to all humanity. How can one eat a good orange fruit if the soil whereby it grows, is full of salt?
I have realized that labor in understanding and in imbibing the spirit of God, is a constant present help in receiving the fruits of our desires. My heart is full when I am comfortable with the fulfillment of the days desire towards God. There is no true happiness without accomplishing this.
Expecting too much also from prayers is like asking God to do our unfinished work. Jesus paved the way for us , so that we may find the appropriate manner of devotion and worship . This opens a clear way of forgiveness and salvation to all humanity.
Sometimes , people see me looking very happy and they always wonder if I won some kind of lottery. No. Its every minute , every second of my life that I call upon the Lord to sanctify my soul , that the awareness of salvation unfolds itself.
The Fruits of such a salvation will never appear, when an unwilling heart, is closed to wisdoms call and the knowledge of Truth.
Pierre Louma
