Many people carry within themselves so many negative …

Many people carry within themselves so many negative elements which paralyse them and the result is that they are unable to show an open, welcoming face, even if they try: impossible to make their facial muscles move, to bring life to their expression, everything remains fixed. And if they try to smile, all you see is a grimace. Proof they have spent all their lives stagnating in the lower regions of the will, the heart, and the intellect, without even an element of the soul and the spirit ever coming near them. The Gospels say that only children will enter the Kingdom of God. Why? Because children laugh and smile; they are alive. This is why you must heed the expressions of your face. If you arrive before the door of Paradise with a stony face, you will be told: ‘No, you can't come in with a face like that. Here we only allow children's faces.' Yes, indeed, there are beings by the doors up above who look at your expression and if you have a forbidding look on your face, they will say: ‘Go on, away with you! We don't want you here.' You do not believe it? Well, go and find out.
