a little folding of the hands to rest,
and poverty will come upon you like a robber,
and want, like an armed warrior.
---- my own,
This is the story of your life - you will admit it if you are honest to yourself. You have habitually given in to the promptings of the flesh and this is why you have made so little progress in holiness. Each time you are self-indulgent, choose ease over doing the hard thing, the difficult thing you allow yourself to be robbed of grace. The evil one knows all your weaknesses better than you know them yourself and he knows when and how to slither in and quietly strike, he is so subtle you are not even aware that evil has won. But it is not too late. Wake up! This is the hour! Now is the time to keep watch and pray so you will not be led into temptation and the Father who loves you will come to you, comfort you, and enable you to become the daughter He created you to be. Do not be discouraged begin anew.
