My prayer for you is that you may grow in the likeness of Christ, being real carriers of God's love and that you really bring his presence, first, into your own family, then, to the next door neighbor, the street you we live in, the town we live in, the country we live, then only, in the whole world, that living example of God's presence.

Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it.

The more we can give in our silent prayer, the more we can give in our active life.

Even when the urgent is good, the good can keep you from your best, keep you from your unique contribution, if you let it.

God doesn't ask that we succeed in everything, but that we are faithful. However beautiful our work may be, let us not become attached to it. Always remain prepared to give it up, without losing your peace.

Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.

In this world, there is no clarity. There is only love and action.
