Rendering to God the things that are God’s'
means being docile to his will, devoting our lives
to him, and working for his kingdom of mercy,
love, and peace.

even on this earth, to stand as it were
on the threshold of the heavenly Jerusalem,
and enjoy the contemplation of that everlasting feast.

as He walks before you bearing the weight of the cross.

the path of humility, which he himself followed
by his suffering on our behalf.

and we walk with our steps in his footprints.
He it is, who is our guide,
and the burning flame which illumines our paths.

in everything we do.
