Summary

This quote suggests that what we commonly refer to as luck is actually a reflection of our own inner thoughts, actions, and beliefs. It implies that we have the power to influence and shape the outcomes in our lives. Instead of passively waiting for good fortune to come our way, we are the ones who actively create opportunities and set events into motion. In essence, it emphasizes the notion that we have control over our own destiny and that we are responsible for the things that occur in our lives.

Christ is the Master the Scriptures are only the servant. The true way to test all the Books is to see whether they work the will of Christ or not. No Book which does not preach Christ can be apostolic, though Peter or Paul were its author.
