The LORD is near all those who call on Him, all those who call on Him in truth. Psalms 145:18
Universal Truth
I search for universal truth in my home; I study it in my soul. There is no need for me to travel abroad extensively to find it. Nor need I to attend a convention of wise people or a gathering of scholars. I seek the truth that exists before everybody. I want the light that shines upon all people. I crave for the truth that fills any human beings regardless of race, nation, religion and sect. The universal truth is as deep as the human soul which can reach the essence of real existence. The worth of life, indeed, lies here in human life; that is alone can the pivotal truth of the cosmos. Anyone, then, can discover it within one's own way and transform one's own being into a cosmic being, independent from self and the world.

Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him or her deny one's self and take up one's cross and follow Me. Matthew 16:24
Faith Leaves One's Self
Faith is believing, and believing is leaving one's self in the hand of Other. It is essentially a passive state of mind, in contrast to an active state of doing. But faith, rightly placed in the right object, begins to be active at once. It produces good works as natural as good trees produce good fruits. Ever passive, and therefore always resting, but ever productive of good works, faith is an ideal state of existence. And it is a state into which the Gospel of Christ introduces all persons, who receive Him and believe on His name. So many false doctrine of faith are trying to attain salvation by one's good work; but the true way to faith is to cease trying, and to leave one's self as it is in His hand.
