信德是超性的禮物，它是一盞燈，照亮了整個人生的道路……光會背誦口訣仍不夠……，信德必須滲透到整個靈魂，讓推理、思想、情感和整個生命都被指引去天堂，抵達天上。(APD56, 101) Faith is a supernatural gift, it is a light which illuminates the whole journey of life... It is not enough to recite the formulas..., this faith must penetrate […]
主啊，求祢讓我信德日益增長，越來越相信；讓我總在天主的光照下看待事物，讓我的推理符合信德，受信德的啟發與光照。(APD56, 105) Allow, O Lord, that I believe more and more every day; and that I always see things... in the light of God and that my reasonings be conformed […]
天主一直記掛著我們，不斷地想著祂的孩子們，祂不只是提供衣服、房子和麵包……天主介入我們生命中的每個時刻，在我們的每個步伐中，用智慧和愛引導我們。(APD56, 106) The Lord thinks continually of us, he thinks continually of his children and not only provides clothing and a house and bread... The Lord intervenes in all moments […]
耶穌，神聖的導師，我感謝並讚美祢至甘飴的聖心，因為祢賜給了我們教會這個大恩。她是教授我們真理，領導我們走向天堂，並傳給我們超性生命的母親。……求祢賜我聖寵使我愛她，如同祢曾愛了她一樣，並在祢的聖血中聖化了她。(PR 136-137) O Jesus, Divine Master, I bless and thank your most sweet heart for the great gift of the Church. She is the Mother who instructs us in the […]
許多時候我們缺乏信德。是我們覺得這恩寵太大了嗎？不是的，而是我們對天主缺乏尊重。我們必須思及天主的力量與良善！全能的天主，慈愛的天父！(APD56, 59) Many times one lacks faith. Does that grace seem too great? But we have little reverence for God, instead. We must consider his power, his goodness! Almighty God, […]
如果不接近耶穌，不與祂交談、聽從祂、接受祂、表達我們對祂的愛、向祂獻上我們的心和我們的存有，那麼朝拜聖體能算什麼呢？以信德朝拜聖體，帶給心靈極大的喜樂和安慰。(APD56, 110) What is the Visit, if not approaching Jesus to speak to him, to hear him, to receive, to profess our love to him, to offer him our heart, […]
神聖的四旬期引導我們敬禮被釘十字架的耶穌基督。天上導師在十字架上，是用榜樣而不是以言語來教導我們；祂確實是唯一的導師，因為其他導師只是給予指引，但耶穌基督除了言語的教導之外，還以榜樣領導我們。(APD58, 30) The Holy season of Lent leads us to devotion to Jesus Christ crucified. The Divine Master teaches us from the cross more with examples than with words and […]
一個小小的美德、一個發自內心的祈禱、一件無人看見的善事、一個思想、一個內心的定志、一個愛天主的內在行為、一場屬靈爭戰的勝利……這些在多數情況下都是瞬間的事，但賞報卻是永恆的。(APD56, 120) A small act of virtue, a little prayer said from the heart... a good work done without anyone seeing it; a thought, an inner desire, an act of […]
假使天主要我們祈禱，那麼祂必定會回應我們，因為祂是信實的天主；祂渴望聆聽我們。如果祂親自教導我們要祈求……也就表示祂想聆聽我們，祂已為我們準備了恩寵，為每個人準備了恩典。所以，我們要懷著堅忍的信心，向祂祈禱。(APD56, 122) If the Lord has promised, if he has commanded to pray, he therefore wants to hear us; he wants to listen to us. And if he himself taught […]
我們有時被困難嚇跑，是因為我們忘記了天主從未要求達不到的事情。當祂命令時，祂是讓我們做能力所及的事；而對於我們以為辦不到的事情，則要請求祂的幫忙。妳們懇求祈禱吧！(APD56, 123) We are sometimes frightened by difficulties, but this depends on forgetting that the Lord does not command impossible things, but while he commands, he orders us to do […]
愛德，也就是天主的愛，吸納了所有的定志，綜合了一切的美德，這是終點。我們內在的聖殿是建立在信德之上，在望德中興起，在愛德內完成和實現。如果信德是地基，望德是建築物的圍牆，那麼愛德就是完工的成屋。(APD56, 131) Charity, the love of God, which absorbs and includes all the other resolutions, synthesizes all the other virtues, is the point of arrival. Since the spiritual building is […]
