To live charitably means not looking out for our own interests, but carrying the burdens of the weakest and poorest among us.

We cannot trust in our own strength, but only in Jesus and in his mercy.

If we wish to follow Christ closely, we cannot choose an easy, quiet life. It will be a demanding life, but full of joy.

Children are to be welcomed, cherished, protected.

Gossip can also kill, because it kills the reputation of the person! It is so terrible to gossip! At first it may seem like a nice thing, even amusing, like enjoying a candy. But in the end, it fills the heart with bitterness, and even poisons us.

Let us allow God to fill our hearts with his goodness and mercy.

The love of Christ fills our hearts and makes us always able to forgive!
