« whatever gifts we have received to contribute to the building of the Kingdom, we must never become proud of them. Instead, we should use them with simplicity and humility for the glory of God. »
Ma faiblesse ne me disqualifie pas et mes qualités ne m’autorisent pas à m’enorgueillir : tout ce que je suis doit devenir un instrument au service du Seigneur.
Is my lamp truly burning? Is my faith nourished by prayer and the Word of God? Do I take care of my inner life, or am I satisfied with merely appearing religious?
Le travail bien fait devient alors un chemin de sanctification parce qu’il nous apprend la patience, la persévérance, la discipline, la fidélité, l’humilité et le don de soi.
What are our hearts overflowing with? What fills our cup? Is it justice, mercy, and faithfulness? Or, on the contrary, envy, resentment, pride, and indifference?
We must have our own personal experience of God. We must taste the goodness of the Lord, His mercy, and His power. It is through these experiences that true faith is born.
Le Christ est là, présent au plus profond de nos cœurs. En faisant silence, nous pouvons le rencontrer dans nos méditations quotidiennes, dans sa Parole et dans chacun de nos moments de prière.
