Who is the Track of the runners
and the Reward of the winners,
lead and guide you along it –
He, Christ Jesus!”
Bl Guerric of Igny O.Cist (c1080-1157)
“Let us go to Jesus when we are worn out by conflict
and have no strength left.
Let us go to Him when we feel
that we can walk no further
along the stony path to perfection.
He will help us and restore our courage;
He will grant us an increase of grace which is the source of the spiritual life.
It is essential, however, that we should have
a spirit of recollection.
If we are dissipated, we shall be
unable to hear the Voice of God.
We must speak with God
and open our hearts to Him;
we must tell Him that we love Him
and wish to learn to love Him more
and to conform more completely
to His designs for us.”
Antonio Cardinal Bacci (1881-1971)
