Let us love God my
brothers, let us love God. But let it be
with the strength of our arms and the sweat of our brow
A missionary needs patience and restraint in his works with
those to whom he is sent. The poor can be so unrefined, so ignorant ...
If an individual hasn't the gentleness to put up with their crudeness,
what can he hope to accomplish? Nothing at all. On the contrary, he
will dishearten those poor ones. When they feel his sharpness, they
will be put off and will not return to learn those things which are
needed for them to be saved. Gentle patience, then, is demanded of us
Let us work with a new love in the service of the poor,
looking for the most destitute and abandoned among them. Let us
recognize that before God they are our lords and masters, and we are
unworthy to render them our small services.
Give me persons of prayer and they will be capable of anything.
What! To be a Christian and see a Brother afflicted without
weeping with him, without being sick with him, would be to be without
charity, to be a mere picture of a Christian, to be without humanity,
to be worse than brute beasts!
