Dear Brothers and Sisters, Give us this Day When you pray, be humble When you confess, be honest When you do penance, do it indefatigably When you eat, be sensible When you are alone, be faithful When you are with others, be discreet When some teaches you good manners, be receptive When someone reprimands you for your mistakes, be patient When you do something bad, ask for forgiveness immediately When you are full of self-absorbed pride, fear for the health of your soul When you are sad, trust God completely When you are doing manual work, work hard, because hard work drives off every evil thought (Mechthild of Magdeburg, The Flowing light of the God- head. c. 1208-1282) Our Journey continues, Fr Karl
