Every action of ours should be done with great care, discretion and thoughtfulness. This is the ideal embodied in the Lord's message. He whose actions are noble is a true gentleman. He does not eat food for the taste of it. He accepts food only to keep his body fit and healthy. The meaning of this is he eats that he may live; and does not live to eat. Eating food to satisfy hunger is necessary though harmful to the soul; but eating voraciously to enjoy the taste of food is not only meaningless but harmful to the soul. The latter causes greater sin. We worry and trouble others; and others keep worrying and troubling us. In this manner, situations arise in life which compel us to commit sins. The fruit of merit or a noble action is happiness. The fruit of sin For Private And Personal Use Only
