“A mere smile, a short visit, the lighting of a
lamp, writing a letter for a blind man, carrying a bucket of charcoal, reading the newspaper for someone – something small, very small – may, in fact, be our love of God in action.” ~Blessed Teresa of Calcutta
For Reflection:
In what small way will I resolve to show my “love of God in action” today?

A Note on the Texts
With a few exceptions noted in the Acknowledgements, these readings are gathered and adapted from public domain sources, mostly in older English translations. If this book were intended as a scholarly tome, the texts would be strictly translated--and as a result, they would require extensive, and intrusive, explanatory notes. Many words in the original translations are unfamiliar to most readers today ("lictors," "abnegation," "disordinate," "turpitude"). Other have changed their meanings. (A hundred years ago, for example, "confusion" typically meant "ruin" or "shame", not "misunderstanding" or "perplexity".)
