Christians should take an objective view of the times. Instead, they want
to experience everything subjectively within themselves and enjoy inner
beatitude. Yet, these feelings have no permanency, and so they become
disappointed. But when a person has his eye on a better future for
mankind,
then he gains a festival of the heart. A great confidence gives us
strength
for difficult times.
