If we are heartless, God cannot recognise us. As long as time exists, we are given the opportunity through prayer and the keeping of the commandments to lift our heavy earthly existence upwards. We cry out to God, invoking the beloved Name of Almighty and Most High God Jesus. We beseech Him to come, lift our burden, teach us His humility and the meekness of His ethos, and grant us the vision of the age to come so that we do not waver before the tragic futility of this present life. Christianity is unpopular in our time because exerting violence against our nature is incompatible with the comfortable life of this world. Yet once we embark on this endeavour with determination, God gives grace, making our burden light and the yoke of His commandments easy.
