Harvesting The Fruits of Contemplation

Pondering Tidbits of Truth is my simple and inadequate way of providing nuggets of spiritual wisdom for you to chew on from time to time . Father Achille Gagliardi  “All perfection is found upon only two principles…The first principle is a very low esteem for all created things but above all, for ourselves. This low esteem should show itself, in practice, by renouncing ourselves and all creatures…especially by manifesting contentment and cheerfulness when the Lord takes from us any good The second principle is a very high esteem of God…From this esteem there must certainly arise in us a great submission of will, and of every power and faculty, to His greater glory, without any mingling of our own interest, though it be ever so holy….there will be great conformity with the Divine Will…” (From A Year With the Saints – A Virtue for Every Month of the Year )
