The Sense that God is Present at Every Moment of Your Life
When you feel that God loves you and then you love God and everybody, there is nothing that can affect you. Here lies the secret of life. When you say that you love God and you are ready to blame the others, to quarrel with them, to glare at them, your love towards God is questionable.

No matter what another person may have done against us –even on purpose or too provocatively– we should consider things from the standpoint of his salvation.

The Lord is personally concerned with you in order to sanctify you. It’s up to you to be living every minute of your life before His very eyes. It is of great importance to have the sense that God is present at every moment of your life, at ev- ery situation you find yourself in. This thought helps you live carefully.
