Do Not Lose Courage In Considering Your

If You Have To Do With One Who Is Unquestionably A Slanderer, Do Not Excuse Him By Calling Him Frank And Free-spoken; Do Not Call One Who Is Notoriously Vain, Liberal And Elegant; Do Not Call Dangerous Levities Mere Simplicity; Do Not Screen Disobedience Under The Name Of Zeal; Or Arrogance, Of Frankness; Or Evil Intimacy, Of Friendship. No, My Friends, We Must Never, In Our Wish To Shun Slander, Foster Or Flatter Vice In Others: But We Must Call Evil Evil, And Sin Sin, And So Doing We Shall Serve God's Glory.

The Highest Degree Of Meekness Consists In Seeing, Serving, Honoring, And Treating Amiably, On Occasion, Those Who Are Not To Our Taste, And Who Show Themselves Unfriendly, Ungrateful, And Troublesome To Us.

Do Not Be Ashamed Of Being Poor, Or Of Asking Alms. Receive What Is Given You With Humility, And Accept A Refusal Meekly. Frequently Call To Mind Our Lady's Journey Into Egypt With Her Holy Child, And Of All The Poverty, Contempt And Suffering They Endured. If You Follow Their Example You Will Indeed Be Rich Amid Your Poverty.

We Must Fear God Out Of Love, Not Love Him Out Of Fear.

We Have Freedom To Do Good Or Evil; Yet To Make Choice Of Evil, Is Not To Use, But To Abuse Our Freedom.
