Dove Beloved of Christ

“O religious soul, dove beloved of Christ, behold those little pieces of strawHolySpiritDove4 which the world tramples under its feet. They are the virtues practiced by the Saviour and thy Spouse, for which He Himself has set thee an example: humility, meekness, poverty, penance, patience, and mortification.”
 
                  -St. Anthony of Padua
 
For Reflection:
 
Think of three examples of Jesus’ patience as presented to us in Sacred Scripture. Think of three examples of Our Lady. How do the instances of these examples parallel situations I have experienced? Did I exercise patience in these times? I will pray for the grace to do so in the future.           gracelinefeature

Section Four:  Scripture Passage for Meditation

So put away all malice and all guile and insincerity and envy and all slander.  Like newborn babes, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up to salvation; for you have tasted the kindness of the Lord.

                                                           -1 Peter 2:1-3 (Revised Standard Version)
