“While I warn you of your faults, my own come before my eyes!” – St. Vincent de Paul – Whenever I must correct anyone, Lord, keep before me my own faults and let me do it in the same way I myself would like to be treated.
“Let us leave to God our justification.” – St. Louise de Marillac – When I am unjustly criticized, instead of becoming defensive about it, I will leave the justification to you, Lord.
Since God is the Master of the sea and the winds, I ask God to make them favorable to you, to steer the ship wherever you go, to be your guide and pilot, and, in a word, to lead you safely to your destination (V:37).
“God is very good to tolerate me!” – St. Vincent de Paul – How long will it take, Lord, for me to realize that your love for me is unconditional! I am grateful for your presence within me.
