Lies Under the Collar

Question... How do we become Virtuous?

Lie... You have to know who God is Theologically in order to become Virtuous.

Truth...You have to know who you are that is not like Him and repent to God of who you are in all the ways that are not like Him and ask God directly for His moral Truth, Love, and Virtues, in order to become Virtuous.

In other words, you have to want the Truth from God about how to recognize all of your sins both interior and exterior and repent of them, and actively seek directly from God His Truth, Love, and Virtues to replace each of your sins intellectual and physical sins in order to become virtuous!

Daily Process to become Virtuous (The Basics)

1. Repent of your pride and all your perspectives and attitudes on everyone and everything, ask for Humility to replace your pride, and for all the correct perspectives and attitudes on everyone and everything.

2. Replace all of your idolatrous bad coping addictions (your so called relaxation, fun, and entertainment) that you are doing to make yourself psychologically emotionally stop feeling bad and using to try to make yourself feel good, by sitting in complete silence in the Eucharistic Adoration Chapel of any Catholic Church begging for Jesus Christ to help you feel His Love and His presence, while crying your eyes out if necessary, while NOT distracting yourself, with any formal memorized prayers or reading material, from contemplating the real presence of and listening to Christ.

3. Repent of not wanting to allow and accept temporary suffering, and ask for the grace to want to allow and accept temporary suffering.  Repent of wanting to sin. Repent of NOT wanting Truth nor to be Loving and Virtuous.

4. Repent of blaming your psychological emotions and feelings on everyone and everything but your intellect and free will to choose of your Soul, and ask for the grace to blame your free will to choose for all of your psychological emotions and feelings.

5. Ask to be shown how to recognize all interior and exterior sin, including to be made self-aware of all the lies you believe, including unrealistic expectations, and all the sinful wants/desires that you have.

6. Ask to be made self-aware of what and how you are emotionally feeling at any time, and repent of every bad psychological emotion, feeling, and attraction that you ever experience at any moment.

7. Ask Truth, Love, and Virtues Himself to show you the Truth about all of the reasons why you are having any particular bad psychological emotion, feeling, or attraction, especially to be shown all of the lies you believe that are causing said emotion, feeling, or attraction.

Reality Check for the Self-righteous:

You know you are being a prideful feelings blamer (because you have one or more idolatrous bad coping habits / addictions) who doesn't want Truth about their own sins and doesn't want to repent of their own sins, when...

...you ask Jesus to make you self-aware of what you are doing wrong in relation to another person who is sinning against you, or who you think is sinning against you, and the ONLY responses you receive are the truth about how you need to be tolerant, patient, compassionate, understanding, and offer up your suffering for them, because of the lies you believe that you're a victim of their sinfulness and they make you have your emotional reactions to them. 

All day every day pray the following...

Repent of your pride, how all of your perspectives and attitudes and priorities on everything and everyone are wrong, and not wanting the truth about yourself.  Ask for humility to want, recognize, and accept Truth, to be shown all of your sins, to be taught how to recognize all sin, and to become self-aware of all the lies you believe about everyone and everything.

Repent of wanting to blame your emotions and feelings on everything outside of your intellect and free will to choose of your Soul.  And every time you feel any unpleasant psychological emotion or feeling, repent of it, and ask God for Virtues, Truth, and Love to replace it, and ask to be shown what lies you believe that are causing it.

Amen!
