SMART AND STRONG
 

"Walk in the light (*visibility/clarity), that you may be sons of the light." What did Christ mean by the words "Walk in light"? Light to the soul has the same meaning as light to our body. Walk in the light to be sons of the Kingdom of God. Man grows as well as the seed of the plant upwards. The word "son" means heir. Christ says, "All that the Father hath is mine, as He hath everlasting life, even so He hath given Me. Walk in light, that ye may know your way." We need to know our aspirations and what to do. For example, bees strive to collect honey, people seek goods for their earthly life, and those who strive spiritually must strive for heaven. There, it is a place not for the poor and it is not an inn, but a place for purified and prepared souls - sons of light. He who purifies his soul, accepts the light that purifies the soul. The human soul is a plant on earth, the earth must be cultivated and our soul must bear fruit. Walk in the light to purify yourself and give these fruits, good deeds that consist in good desire and thought that will bear its fruit. We can never sow a good thought if we do not perform one act. The act is the connecting thread in the ground to bear fruit. We must use every desire, fertilise it, mature it in order to benefit from it, otherwise we will not be saved. We say that God is good, He will save us, but "salvation" means changing the conditions for our heart to develop, and after we are saved, then we must work, not that we are already saved and our work is over. "Walk in the light." It is difficult for one ignorant man in the profound sense of the gospel to define himself, but when the light penetrates our soul, then love appears. Otherwise, love cannot appear in us. As when someone delivers the drowning person from the water, there is a thread of gratitude and love between them, because he is saved from the limitation, from the bad conditions, so it is with the soul, when it is saved - the thread appears in us - the light of love for Christ, and then we have to start working.

Love always begins with giving something, just as the father gives an inheritance for the knowledge of the son he loves, so does God, when he loves us, give us knowledge to save us from our bad situation. God shows us only His presence with the light. When He comes to us, when the light comes to us, we already feel God and do not seek Him.

Heaven is the heart, the pulse of the whole world, the whole universe - the heart, where life comes in and goes out from, everyone enters and comes out of there. When we are well disposed to self-denial, to virtue, to love, we are in Heaven, and when we are the opposite, then we are in hell. Walk in light in order to be sons of Heaven. What should the sons be towards the father, or our souls to God? It is what thoughts there are in us at a given moment. He who has the experience of this will understand everything and more will be provided to him. However, if we do not have experience, it will not be clear to us, because we will not have a measure to determine more complex relationships.

If children do not know the basics of mathematics, they cannot understand the higher mathematics. There is mathematics in life. Addition is understood as a mechanical process - we put something together, we gather someone with another, etc. And subtraction is a mechanical process - we take someone out of his house, we remove something, we take thoughts out. The neighbours bring out their dirty thoughts and desires with their quarrels. Quarrel - addition and subtraction, but as soon as the process of multiplication comes, it already requires mind. To multiply means to put a grain of wheat in the ground, but to also figure out how, when and where to sow it in order to bear a lot of fruit. From one grain - 300. If we can't evaluate someone, we don't know how to divide. The mind is a force that we must know how to multiply and divide with in order to use it and give us wealth to multiply and divide. The mind is a virtue of God. And we need to know this virtue - not just to add and subtract but to also multiply and divide. We need to multiply and share our virtues, to want to become smart and strong. If we have a passion, it is a current, and if it comes from high above, it is strong and does mischief, and if we want it to be destroyed, it means that we want no mountains, but they give the best springs, they are a blessing.

Passions are our humps, which already carry blessings, as long as we know how to develop and work them out, as Iskar for Sofia used to bring her muddy water and make swamps, and now, when it is developed, electricity is took from it, which illuminates the whole of Sofia today. Walk in the light, use your strengths, your knowledge, develop them. What does this law teach us about our practical life? We can apply it everywhere, we can always say to ourselves, "I will walk in the light." We need to gain knowledge. As there is light through the wick in the lamp, so is the human mind. We must defeat the devil through our minds and harness him to work and he will teach us in mind, because he bears, he has stolen the riches from God for men and gives them only to the one who becomes his master and if he overcomes us, he will we serve him and we will be in darkness. It is, when dark thoughts occur to us, if we are in doubt , we are on the top of the mountain and on one side are the light and God while on the other- the darkness and the devil, we need to keep balance and strive to reach in the light.

Freedom - it is a wide space of the soul. To distinguish our soul in a broad framework. Often do we feel burden, it is because our soul seeks to crack us in order to develop.

Every suffering tells us that we must get out of these conditions and go into space. Not to be deceived, not to love the bodies of our loved ones, but to love the souls of people, to seek the soul, not the body - the house. We often change it, we have been in animal houses, etc.

Animals strive to become humans, and humans must strive to become angels in order to be sons of light, and until we are sons of light, we will not be sons of God. Do not expect good things on earth, because purification, suffering, trials are coming, and let us be strong, firm, and not hesitate, but be ready for Christ. Our thoughts should never be for material goods, but we should have a good, pure, bright soul that will give birth to good desires and good thoughts. When we suffer, our soul, which strives for pure and bright thoughts and desires suffers.
 

We will walk in the light and let us be sons of the light.
