'It's my life, and I just want to do with it what I want.' …

'It's my life, and I just want to do with it what I want.' This is how young people generally declare their independence. They want to live their life, yes, but what kind of life is that? An animal life or a divine life? People who think only of 'living their life' open themselves up to a chaotic existence and what happens then is that they actually lose their life in the end. The disciple on the other hand knows that if he wants to save his life, he must devote it to the Lord, saying: 'Lord, I am beginning to realize that without You, without Your Light, without Your Intelligence I am nothing. I have been doing as I please and now I am sick and weary and feel ashamed of myself. I feel I am now ready to serve you. I devote my life to You so that finally I may be of some use to the world.' The Lords of destiny will then take counsel and decide: 'From here on in we change your destiny.' And this decision will be published throughout all the regions in space. The angels and all the servants of Heaven will instantly comply and you will find that your life begins to change.
