THE PRIESTHOOD
THE FAITHFUL PRIEST
He regards with dove-like
simplicity all the wealth that passes through his hands, whether it be the
benefits bestowed by God upon men, or the offerings of men to God. His aim
is twofold -- the good of the people and the glory of God.
St. Bernard
THE WATCHFULNESS OF A PRIEST
The priest must be fortified as
though by adamantine armor, must watch on every side with constant zeal and
perpetual vigilance in respect to his life, lest any one should find some
naked and unguarded spot, and inflict a fatal wound; for all who stand
around are prepared to smite and cast him down -- not merely his enemies and
foes, but many even of those who profess to be his friends.
St. John Chrysostom
(08-13-02)
