My sheep hear My Voice;
I know them and they follow Me.

John 10:27

Peace in us is the result
of two kinds of necessary obedience,
the obedience to right reason
of the lower faculties
and the obedience of right reason
to God, our Creator.
“This is the peace which God
gives on earth to men of goodwill;
this is the most perfect wisdom,

St Augustine (356-430)
Father and Doctor of Grace

Do all through love,
nothing through constraint.
Love obedience more
than you fear disobedience.

(Letter to Madame de Chantal)

To find the Saviour
outside obedience’
is to lose Him altogether!

(Letters to Persons in Religion, VI, 22)

St Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
Doctor Caritas
