THE WAY OF PURIFICATION... AFTER CONVERSION... Helps and Hindrances to Holiness

THE WAY OF PURIFICATION
AFTER CONVERSION

CHAPTER 34
Helps and Hindrances to Holiness

CHRIST,

MY , there is one thing that stops many from making spiritual progress and keeps them from improving themselves. It is a fear of the difficulties or of the work required by their effort. The people who rise highest in holiness are those who are brave enough to fight against whatever holds them back from Me, no matter how hard or disagreeable the effort maybe. The more you try to master your feelings and blind desires, the greater are the graces which I offer to you. If you keep on trying, you will gain as much success as I desire of you.

2. Different men have to face different obstacles. Yet, a diligent and zealous person will make greater progress in virtue, even though he may have to fight more defects than others. Some people have fewer defects to overcome, and still they do not advance in holiness because they are less fervent in the pursue of virtues.
