SPIRITUALITY
GOOD WORKS
St. Paul says: The letter kills but the
spirit gives life. A man has been killed by the letter when he wants
to know quotations only so that people will think he is very learned
and he can make money to give to his relatives and friends.
A religious has been killed by the
letter when he has no desire to follow the spirit of Sacred
Scriptures, but wants to know what it says, only so that he
can explain it to others. On the other hand, those who have received
life are those who, by their works and example, refer to God alone
all good and knowledge and never allow themselves to
self-complacency.
St. Francis of Assisi
