In a very real way, the poor are our teachers. They show us that people’s value is not measured by their possessions or how much money they have in the bank. A poor person, a person lacking material possessions, always maintains his or her dignity. The poor can teach us much about humility and trust in God.

I pray the breviary every morning. I like to pray with the psalms. Then, later, I celebrate Mass. I pray the Rosary. What I really prefer is adoration in the evening, even when I get distracted and think of other things, or even fall asleep praying.

But I pray mentally even when I am waiting at the dentist or at other times of the day.

Christians are those who let God clothe them with goodness and mercy, with Christ, so as to become, like Christ, servants of God and others.
