有時會發生這樣的情況：一些人認為他們被天主召叫離開修會，而進入隱修院。也許這是天主對某些靈魂的邀請，要他更加修心，更追求内修生活，更熱衷於祈禱。(APD47, 63) It can also happen that someone believes that she is called by God to leave her own congregation... to enter a cloistered order... probably, it is simply a […]

反思童貞聖母瑪利亞身負對耶穌的責任，以了解耶穌召叫你去完成的高超使命——相似於聖母的使命。你必須仰望聖母，仿效她，渴望從她那裡得到助佑，以完成你的使命。(APD47, 81) Reflect on the office that the Virgin Mary had towards Jesus, in order to understand how Jesus has called you to a very sublime mission, very similar to […]

一切都從思想出發。如果某人想做一件好事，那是因為他先想到，然後有意願去做，跟著就做了。因此，你們首先要顧好思想。如果在思想上有任何罪惡、不完善、瑕疵或毛病，喔，要聖化思想。(APD63, 365) Everything comes from the mind. If one does good work it is because he has thought it out and then wanted it and then done it. So always, […]

若我們知道聖保祿在世上做了多少善事，特别是對我們這些外邦人的後裔所成就的善；看他的生活、他的工作、他的書信：我們就更會向他祈求，更愛他，更效法他。從他身上我們會學會基督信仰的兩種基本美德：對耶穌及對近人的愛。(APim, 20) Would that we knew the good that St. Paul has done for the world, especially for us descendants of the gentiles! If we read his life, his works […]

聖保祿宗徒走遍了當時已知的世界，讓各地聽到福音，把無數的基督徒聚集在十字架的旗幟下。因此，他是熱誠的人：幾乎可以說熱誠就是聖保祿的分身。(APim, 22) The Apostle Paul traveled the known world of his time, making heard everywhere the good news and gathering under the banner of the cross an immense number of […]

倘若對瑪利亞的敬禮能在世上建立起來，世界肯定會找到耶穌。(APD47, 97) May the devotion to Mary be established in the world and certainly, the world shall find Jesus (APD47, 97).

我希望你們每個人都能感到要向天上導師表達感謝、信賴和愛。你們付出辛勞而獲得的恩賜有：眼望天堂的望德，謙和，與熾熱的心；然而，最重要的是效法耶穌、道路、真理和生命。(APim, 221) I would like everyone to feel a felt word of gratitude, of faith, of love for the Divine Master and to say to everybody: eyes to heaven, knees […]

福傳工作的痛苦，就是與耶穌一起受苦，以拯救人靈。每人都背著十字架，有人拖著它走，有人把它鋸開幾塊，以便減輕重量，有人把它抬起來向大家展示。有的人則帶著它與耶穌在一起，這樣做就對了。(APD47, 338) Apostolate of suffering. It is to suffer with Jesus in order to save souls. Everyone carries the cross down here. There are those who carry it by dragging […]

戰勝自己……除掉毛病，以美德取而代之。驕傲的人要謙虛，嫉妒的人要慈善，懶惰的人要熱心。誰若不足，就請求主賜予堅忍，這是一種樞德，是的，也是聖神的禮物。(APim, 263) Overcoming ourselves... Do away with defects to be able to put in their place the opposite virtues. One who is proud, replace with humility, and one instead who […]

仁愛是一種情誼，一種善意，一種在我們心中對於天父、對於弟兄、對於鄰人所表現出的愛。對天主的愛和鄰人的仁愛，就像同一絲火苗散發出的兩道光芒。(APim, 56) Charity is friendship, benevolence and love that we show in our heart toward our heavenly Father and our brothers and sisters, our neighbour. Charity towards God and our […]

從聖保祿寫的內容，我們知道他心中對天主的愛火燃燒得如何，他與我們的主密切結合，直到他說的：我生活已不是我生活，而是基督在我內生活。(APim, 57) We know moreover how intensely burning in his heart was the fire of his love for God from what he wrote about his intimate union with Our Lord […]

天主在創造我們的時候，為每個人在世上分配了一個位置、一項人生事業、一個特殊的聖召。根據這特殊的聖召，祂賦予每個人適切的傾向和才能，祂還為這人準備了在這特殊崗位上所需的多重恩寵。(APim, 77) In creating us, the Lord assigns to each one a place in the world, a career in life, a special vocation. And in accord with this special vocation, […]
