The true servant must know that all the patience, all the softness and support he showed in devoting themselves to others are nothing more than his duty, nothing more than what he should do. In the beginning, God created man just to make it his servant, and the sin of man was precisely to deny that. Also, to be rehabilitated, it must be again restored to the position of a slave. By accepting it, it does nothing remarkable, since it has been created and saved for this purpose. Thus is the way of the Cross is the way that the only real slave, Jesus drew for us. We refuse to follow in his footsteps and be the slave of the Divine Slave? This path down, down forever, and this is why it seems hard, impossible to follow. But be assured, this is the only path that climbs. It is in this way that the Lord came to the throne. This is the only way by which we also arrive at the spiritual power, authority godly fertility. Those who tread this path are radiant soul, happy, it overflows with life from above. In each of us there is a proud, stiff-necked. This neck began to stiffen in the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Eve, who were always subject to the will of God, rebelled, demanded their independence, seeking to be like gods.Throughout the Bible, God accuses His people have stiff neck, yet we also: hard and we are outraged, and could easily offended. We chafe, we envy, criticize, and we refuse to forgive and keep grudges. We are fighting for ourselves and trying to accomplish through our own efforts that should be left to God. We lenient ourselves-and how often this leads us to uncleanness! All these things and many others have their source in our me proud. If Christ really replaced us, we would not have these reactions. Before we can go on the heights of the way of holiness, God must bend and break me, so that Christ may reign in his stead. Be broken, it means having no more rights or to God, or to men, not just abandon them, but recognize that we have none, except that of merit hell. This means no longer possess anything of its own, no time, no money, no property or position.
