Week 2

Obedience

Sunday Dec 10

While obedience is a virtue not perceived as “little” we often need to obey in “little things”!

The first daughter of humility is obedience and interior fidelity; he who believes himself to be worthless adheres easily and wholeheartedly to the one who commands”

Mon Dec 11

Complete obedience is what the Lord asks, since he who only obeys exteriorly will be a hypocrite or a white sepulcher

Tuesday Dec 12 CHARITY

Pardon me, o Holy Love much beloved, for your precept that we mistreat, pardon my faults and like relief, accept the golden dove

that imitates you so well in charity.
