Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Epigram

Deeds of Kindness

A thousand prayers, may lead someone to

                                 The gates of salvation

                                              But

                His deeds of kindness, towards the unfortunate,

                       Are those that the gates would open!

Andrea Dietrich December 19, 2015 at 7:26 PM VERY great message, my friend. Merry Christmas to you, you are a sage!! Demetrios Trifiatis December 20, 2015 at 4:25 AM How wonderful to see you, Andrea! Thank you so much for your gracious comment. For your information though, I am anything else but a sage except if we examine the situation from Socrates' point of view! Haha! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Richard Lamoureux December 19, 2015 at 8:39 AM I too believe Jesus opens the gates. By us showing our appreciation to Him through our own kindness, we may play some small role in pointing others towards Him. "faith without works is dead" Demetrios Trifiatis December 19, 2015 at 10:32 AM Yes, unquestionably, HE does open the gates but to whom? Each one of us creates his own heavenly account by his deeds and this is one of the prerequisites for the gates to open! Thank you for visiting! Merry Christmas my good friend, Richard!
