BOOK 5 SAINT BRIDGET PATRON SAINT OF EUROPE BOOK OF QUESTIONS
Interrogation 9 FINAL PART
Answer to the fourth question. "As to why insensate things do not have life, I answer: Everything that lives will die, and every living thing is in motion unless impeded by some obstacle. If insensate things had life, they would move themselves more against humankind than for it. Therefore, in order that all things should be a comfort to humankind, the higher beings or angels were given to be their guardians with whom they share reason and immortality of soul. Lower beings, both sensate and insensate creatures, were given to them for their use and upkeep as well as for their education and exercise."

Answer to the fifth question. "As to why it is not always daylight, I answer with a comparison. There are wheels under every cart or wagon so that the load can be more easily moved forward, and the back wheels follow the front wheels. It is similar in spiritual matters. The world is a great load, burdening humankind with trouble and strife. This is no wonder, for when humans disdained the place of rest, so it was only right that they should experience the place of toil. In order that they might more easily bear the burden of this world, an alternation and change of times, that is, day and night, summer and winter, was given for their rest and exercise. When contraries meet, such as strong and weak, it is reasonable to condescend to the weak part so that it can stand with the help of the strong; otherwise the weak would be destroyed.

So it is also with humankind. Although by virtue of their immortal souls, they could continue in contemplation and labor, they would nevertheless falter by virtue of their weak body. Light was made so that humans, who partake of both higher and lower natures, might be able to maintain themselves, laboring by day and recalling the sweetness of the eternal light that they had lost. Night was made for the sake of bodily rest, so that they might have the desire of reaching the place where there is neither night nor labor but perpetual day and everlasting glory."

  • Clarence Carter y su "Patches". Gran éxito. Qué talento interpretativo, qué timbre de voz y qué matices de la misma. Un artista al mismo nivel de un Ray Charles, de un Steve Wonder, de una Diana Ross, de una Marta Reeves. Quienes apreciamos el talento y el arte, agradecemos sinceramente a quien subió este video. jorgecastrodelabarra@yahoo.com
