Many people are looking for an ear that will listen. They do not find it among Christians, because these Christians are talking where they should be listening.

Before Jesus leads His disciples into suffering, humiliation, disgrace, and disdain, He summons them and shows Himself to them as the Lord in God's glory.

The entire day receives order and discipline when it acquires unity. This unity must be sought and found in morning prayer. The morning prayer determines the day.

As brother stands by brother in distress, binding up his wounds and soothing his pain, so let us show our love towards our enemy.
