GODLY PEOPLE

Most people seem to be devoted to God under normal conditions. Then, when something untoward happens, they suddenly change. Emotions like love and hate, questions of honor and prestige, overcome them and push their attachment to God into the background. They are devout under normal conditions, but in extraordinary situations, they act like people who have no thought of God.


Those who are really devoted to God fear Him at all times. They do not let themselves be led astray by their love for someone; they stay within the bounds that God has laid down. They are never overcome by hate; they are just with everyone, even, with their enemies. Worldly honor and prestige can never prevent them from acknowledging the truth.


God's true servants earnestly seek to rectify themselves; they are conscious of their faults; they constantly scrutinize their actions and can see themselves objectively; they look at themselves from a realistic point of view - the point of view from which God looks at them. These are the ones who will be admitted into God's paradise. There they will know neither affliction nor fear.

THE SEEKER FINDS


People take heaven's name but act in a manner more fitting for hell. This means that they have never sought heaven from God; if they had, God would never have let them proceed on a path that can only lead them to hell.


It is impossible that one should ask God for heaven and be given hell instead; that one should seek to fear the Lord and that He should harden one's heart; that one should desire to remember the Lord at all times and that He should leave one in a state of forgetfulness; that one should long to aspire to eternity and that God should fill one's heart with love of the world: that one should aspire to true, heartfelt piety and that He should make one's piety spiritless; that one should wish to worship God and that he should let one worship personalities instead.


If one does not have what is desirable in life it means. that one has not sought it. Those who seek will always find. How can the Lord of the Universe leave His servant in such a state that he will be able to cry out on the Day of Resurrection, "Lord, I asked You for heaven and You have given me hell." Truly, this is out of the question. One cannot conceive of such a thing happening. There is not a day on which the Lord does not grant His mercy to His servants, yet He gives only to those who ask. One cannot blame the Bestower if the recipient has no desire for what He has to offer.
