Good conscience

Greetings readers and visitors of the site "Just Life!"

Friends, in our time, we almost do not see such dreams that the Lord gives us. Some of us are able to dream amazing things, but most people dream only of nonsense. Many of you trust what you see in your dreams, and of course God is able to warn us in dreams and give us visions even to this day, and I am absolutely sure of it.

There is hardly a person who would not tell others about one or more cases from his practice when he received warnings or information about future benefits he received in a dream. But somehow we tend not to rely on dreams. I remember one incident that happened to Roland Hill, when he said to a lady, who was known to be a child of God, about a dream she had: “I advise you, madam, not to dwell too much on the fact that you were doing in your sleep, let's stay awake and pay more attention to what we are doing in reality."

I, too, am of the same opinion about dreams. It is hard for me to believe that a person became a Christian only because he once dreamed of something, because such a dreamy religion will lead to the fact that he will remain a dreamer for life and in the end - in the end, such dreamers someday will definitely have a terrible awakening, if, of course, dreams are all they can believe.

The Lord Himself grants His beloved child a sleep in a peaceful conscience. There is a painting by an artist, located, in my opinion, in England, which is called "The Dream of Argyle", where main character depicted lying and asleep, and the action takes place on the eve of his execution. Standing grandees are depicted next to him, looking at him with regret and the jailer rattling his keys.

And this man was just sleeping peacefully, despite the fact that tomorrow his head will be separated from his body and someone, holding it in his hand, will say: “It was the head belonging to a traitor!” He slept like this because he had done nothing wrong and had a clear conscience. And now, friends, let's remember Peter and remember that wonderful episode from the Bible, which tells us that Herod intended to bring Peter out in the morning and obviously not in order to invite him to breakfast.

Remember that Peter slept between two guards and was awakened by angels? How could one sleep between two guards knowing that tomorrow he might be executed by the sword or be crucified? But his heart was completely free, and he did not worry about anything, because he knew that there was no evil in his actions.

And he quite rightly could say to everyone, “Judge for yourself, what is more important to serve the Lord or man?” and therefore, with a clear conscience, he could lie down on the floor of his cell in prison and sleep. Friends, have you ever known what the dream of a person whose conscience is clear is? Do you know what it is like to be a defenseless target for slanderous arrows that rain down on you from all sides and to be a constant object of unjust mockery, a laughingstock and the song of the last drunkards?

And do you know that after all these trials, you can sleep peacefully with a pure heart? And now I will turn to those people who are in debt, to those wicked ones who do not love God and Christ: I turn to you and ask you: “How can you sleep peacefully when your sins daily stick thorns in your pillow?” Your sins, like sharp daggers, are constantly sticking out of the bed in such a way that no matter how you turn, no matter what comfortable body position you take, their edge will constantly prick you.

And God's blessing to him who has a calm conscience, which, like the sweetest music, will lull his soul, and no evil demon of anxiety will approach the bed of those people who have a calm conscience, nothing clouded before God, and who can sing their song of victory.

gogol n.v. in his story, the "overcoat" tells the reader about the life of the so-called "little man." describes the spiritual limitations and poverty of his hero. Akaky Akakievich was a timid, wordless creature, meekly enduring the "clerical mockery" of his colleagues and the despotic rudeness of his superiors. the stupefying work of a copyist of papers paralyzed any spiritual interests in him. Gogol's humor is soft and delicate. the writer does not for a single moment leave his ardent sympathy for his hero, who appears in the story as a tragic victim of the cruel conditions of modern reality. the writer creates a satirically generalized type of person - a representative of the bureaucratic power of Russia. in the same way that the authorities behave with Bashmachkin, all "significant persons" behave. the humility and humility of the unfortunate Akaki Akakievich, in contrast to the rudeness of "significant persons", evoked in the reader not only a feeling of pain for the humiliation of a person, but also a protest against the unjust ways of life, in which such humiliation is possible.

Khlestakov is a brilliant image of Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol. the main meaning of this image is big claims and inner emptiness. it represents all the features of the era. that is why the life of the era was reflected in the work "The Inspector General" with great force, and the images of Gogol's comedy became artistic types that allow us to more clearly understand the social phenomena of that time.

In one kingdom there lived a poor girl named Goldilocks. Her parents had nothing but a small abandoned mill.

once they sent Goldilocks to the thicket for mushrooms. During this walk, she dreamed that someday her parents would live in prosperity and happiness. Thinking about it, she even burst into tears.

a kind sorceress flew past, fulfilling any desires. Hearing the cry of the girl, she flew closer to her and asked:

Girl why are you crying?

I remembered my parents and I felt sorry for them.

Perhaps I can help you. I have Magic wand and a box of desires. Tap on the box with a stick and your wish will surely come true.

Goldilocks turned away from modesty, but she wanted a sorceress.

now she said, full of joy:

casket, return me to my parents' house and make them live in delivery. when the goldilocks returned, she saw more than she expected. in front of her was a huge house with beautiful windows and painted walls.

at that time, the young prince was about to get rich. the prince, passing by the house of the goldilocks, noticed her and fell in love at first sight. the goldilocks also noticed him and also fell in love. willingly under your desires.

How much wisdom in our country is passed from mouth to mouth through sayings. In this way, parents explain simple truths to children, people share their feelings with each other. What are the most popular sayings? Of course, proverbs about happiness and sorrow. We will talk about the most famous of them and explain their meaning.

Who has not seen grief, he did not know happiness

This proverb explains well to a person that one should not despair in any situation. The proverb about happiness and sorrow says that without comparison we will not know what is good and what is bad. Well, how can a person know that he lives happily? He may be fine, but he will always want more. And it is precisely at that moment when misfortune befalls that we think about what used to be good. And it also works in reverse side. Only a person who has seen and experienced a lot of grief in his lifetime can truly appreciate what happiness is.

You can’t hide longing and grief behind a wrought iron door

Blacksmith services have always been expensive. Therefore, not every family could afford wrought iron doors. And from time immemorial it was believed that rich people live better. But this is far from true. Proverbs about happiness and sorrow clearly show that, despite the most exquisite gates, life behind them is sometimes no better than behind a wooden gate. People naively believe that money will help them live happier. Beautiful houses, cars, foreign trips can diversify your leisure time and help you get sad thoughts out of your head. But in fact, wherever a person goes, he always takes himself with him. And your thoughts too.

Money can not buy happiness

This proverb is a continuation of the previous one. Proverbs about happiness and grief very often people reduced to money. After all, as you know, they are considered by many peoples to be the root of evil. People spend all their time trying to earn as much as possible. more money. And then, when they retire, they regret that they never really managed to live.

The poor spend a lot of time envying their rich neighbors. They believe that cars, apartments and a good bank account are the key to success. But you need to understand that the main joys of life cannot be bought. Love, friendship, loyalty and smiles cannot be bought with money. All this is given to a person only for his spiritual merits.

Each person is the smith of his own happiness

Very often people blame fate for their failures. That it was she who put spokes in their wheels all their lives. If they did this, and then that, then they would have been happy. And so the question is, who did not give a person the opportunity to act? Only himself. Many lack the willpower, ability, or determination to change their lives. It should be understood that everything can be changed at any time. But if you do not forge happiness with your own hands, then it will not get into your house in any way. This is what Russian proverbs are trying to convey to the minds of people. About happiness and grief, a lot of people invented. Therefore, it is worth trusting folk wisdom and do not sit idly by, waiting for the bird of luck to illuminate you with its presence.

Today in flowers, tomorrow in tears

Such a proverb is always instructed by the mothers of girls "for marriageable age." Young people are amorous and windy. They may adore their boyfriend, who sings serenades under the window and gives armfuls of roses. But a smart girl understands that feelings need to be tested with time. After all, tomorrow an ardent young man can change his idol and sing serenades already under the windows of another. That is why they say where there are flowers today, there are tears tomorrow. Love is fickle, it needs to be maintained and warmed up. If this is not done, then the feelings will cool. People in love who received so much pleasure today may hate each other tomorrow and cry into the pillow all night long about their unhappy love.

Falling is not a problem, trouble is not getting up

This Russian proverb about happiness and sorrow is incredibly popular today. Young businessmen, and just successful people post this phrase in their in social networks. Many consider it a motto. Why did she suddenly become so popular? Because in the era of capitalism, the desire of every second person is to open their own business. But not everyone manages to establish a successful enterprise. Many burn out. And it is this unfortunate moment that breaks the fate of many people. But those individuals who managed to rise, usually manage to establish their business on the second or third attempt. After all, it is already easier to act a second time when you already have experience behind you, albeit unsuccessful.

Happiness happens to those who, in labor and in learning, gain their mind

The meaning of this proverb is very clear. They say that happiness is available even to a fool. But stupid people enjoy the satisfaction of their natural needs and they simply do not have other needs. But smart people know how to enjoy their work. It is through creative self-realization that a person has the opportunity to become happy and leave a mark on history. But in order to achieve this, you need to work diligently and spare no effort to study.

Look for happiness not on the road, but in knowledge

Proverbs are found not only in Russian. Tatars about happiness and grief composed many legends. You can read one of the sayings in Russian translation above. The phrase is full of wisdom. After all, it’s really stupid to look for happiness in distant countries and cities when you don’t know anything about them. Therefore, in order to become happy, you must first enrich your head with a store of knowledge. Thanks to books today, anyone can travel without leaving home.

To be happy, you need to believe in the possibility of HAPPINESS.

Lev Tolstoy

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that the most important thing in life is to be happy. When I went to school, they asked me what I want to be when I grow up. I wrote happy. They told me - "you did not understand the task", I told them - "you did not understand life."
