Emperor Charles V visited a favourite of his who was seriously ill. Upon seeing him, instead of being happy about his sovereigns visit, the sick man became sad and started to moan and cry. The emperor, seeing him grieved, asked him, What is causing you pain? I have come specifically to console you. Is there anything you want from me? Speak freely; I pledge my royal word that I will please you in anything you ask. Then the courtier, with tears streaming down his cheeks, turned his face to the wall and said, If only I could weave the cloth of my life over again from the beginning! And what would you do? demanded the emperor. The sick man answered, I would want to serve only Him who holds life and death in His hands. If you know that you serve the Great one who holds #life and #death in His hands type IM ALIVE
