A self-controlled life will guarantee salvation

A self-controlled life will guarantee salvation.

Unfortunately, we are living in an age when self-control is not appreciated. It has become an object of ridicule. A man is trying hard for self-mastery. His friends, neighbors, relatives and acquaintances all mock at him. They find no reality in his sincere attempt to master his life. They think that the way they are living their lives is more worthwhile. The man who is trying to control his life is a fool, according to them. But who is the fool-he who wants to conquer himself or he who is constantly a victim of fear, doubt, worry and anxiety? Needless to say, he who wants to conquer himself is not only the wisest man but the greatest divine hero.

If you struggle to control yourself,

God will smilingly help you enroll

In His life-transformation-school.

O viata auto-controlata va garanta salvarea.

Din nefericire, noi traim intr-o perioada cand auto-controlul nu este apreciat. El este un subiect de ridiculizat. Cineva incearca din greu sa obtina controlul de sine. Prietenii, vecinii, rudele si apropiatii toti il ironizeaza. Ei considera ca nu exista nimic real in incercarea lui sincera de a-si controla viata. Ei cred ca modul in care isi duc ei viata este mult mai de apreciat. Cel care incearca sa-si controleze viata este un prost, dupa parerea lor. Dar cine este prostul-cel ce doreste sa se cucereasca pe sine sau cel care este o victima constanta a fricii, indoielii, grijii si anxietatii? E inutil sa mai mentionam, ca cel care vrea sa se cucereasca pe sine este nu doar cel mai intelept om dar si cel mai mare erou divin.

Daca lupti sa te controlezi, 

Dumnezeu plin de zambet te va ajuta sa te inrolezi

In scoala-transformarii-vietii pe care o are El.
