St. Francis de Sales says:  “Praise be to Jesus.”

“I tell you, the soul most pleasing to God is the simple, childlike, trusting soul.  Such a one does not challenge God’s Laws or the nature of good versus evil out of intellectual pride.  He fastens his heart to the Truth and remains undaunted by popular opinions.”

“How rare it is these days to find such qualities amongst leaders.  These qualities preclude any compromise of Truth or abuse of authority.  In the simple, childlike heart there is no smug self-righteousness, only Holy Love.  The Truth is not challenged by intellectual pride, but recognized as good.”

Read 1 John 3:19-24 *

Synopsis:  Description of a good conscience of a believer in Christ who is rooted in keeping the Commandments of Holy Love. Creator.

And by this we will know that we are from the Truth and will reassure our hearts before Him whenever our hearts condemn us;  for God is greater than our hearts, and He knows everything.  Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have boldness before God;  and we receive from Him whatever we ask, because we obey His Commandments and do what pleases Him.  And this is His Commandment, that we should believe in the Name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as He has commanded us.  All who obey His commandments abide in Him, and He abides in them.  And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit that He has given us.
