* 06:45 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: Oh, yes, there are indeed souls who attach themselves to these goods much more than to God. To avoid this, our souls need to be detached from earthly things by a spirit of renouncement, by a spirit of poverty.
That detachment is not reserved to priests and religious; it is the very condition of the Christian life. Christians know that everything they have belongs first to God, and God is going to ask them how they made use of those goods.
