好好認識聖保祿……認識你們的父親：他的聖善生活、他的使徒工作、他的道理、他在天主面前的能力。認識基督的宗徒、外邦人的導師、教會的司牧、特選之器、福音的宣講者、基督的殉道者。(APim, 228) To know better St. Paul… “Know your Father”: his holy life, his apostolate, his doctrine, his power before God. To know the Apostle of Christ, the Teacher of […]

你們必須做得更多；不要停在表面，而是要深入禮儀的核心，做更多的事情，與其他人所做的不同；你們要做真正的使徒工作：將人靈帶到聖體前！(APD47, 144) You must do even more; do not stop at the exterior, but penetrate the depths of the Liturgy, do something more, something different from what everyone else is […]

聖保祿是個步行者：耶穌導師在他去大馬士革的路上征服了他，之後保祿走上另一條路，從未停下腳步……今日他比過去走得更遠、更廣。他被我們現有342個會院（1960年）的保祿家庭成員帶往各處，會士們愛他、向他祈禱，並宣揚他。(APim, 235) St. Paul walked: the Divine Master conquered him on the road to Damascus, and Paul, after taking the opposite path, did not stop anymore… He walks today more […]

所有喜歡閱讀保祿書信的人都變得堅強。誰讀過聖保祿的書信，就會熟悉他，慢慢地獲得與他相似的精神。(APim, 242) All the souls that have taken pleasure in reading St. Paul became robust souls. He who reads St. Paul and familiarizes himself with him comes to acquire little […]

我們是否在祈禱中效法我們的父親？我們有敬禮聖保祿嗎？如果一個女兒從來沒有和她父親說過一句話，豈不怪哉！(APim, 246) And we, do we imitate our Father in prayer? Are we devoted to St. Paul? It would be strange if a daughter never spoke to her father! (APim, […]

使用某種方式或另一種方法都無所謂；重要的是有熱忱的心靈，想要將擁有的一切傾注到人們心中。這就是使徒想要做的工作，無論使用什麼工具：印刷、電影、廣播、學校、宣講等等。(Haec Meditare II, 7 , p. 133) It does not matter that one medium or another is used; it matters that there are ardent hearts and souls that want to […]

真愛是有創造力的！當你心中有熱火（不是多愁善感或畫大餅空想）時，你會發現許多創舉和許多事業。真正的愛是表現在每天為了使徒工作所付出的努力：它刺激你想法子、到處奔波、籌畫安排。(Haec meditare II, 8 , pp. 179-180) Love, true love, is inventive. When one has fire in one’s heart (not something sentimental and vapid), one finds many initiatives and many […]

過修道生活的人不僅要遵守誡命和一般基督徒的義務，而且必須在一切事務上努力成聖。想法、願望、感受、言語……都必須以耶穌為榜樣。(PrP I, 103) The religious must observe not only the Commandments and the duties of ordinary Christians but must strive for holiness in everything. His/her thoughts, his/her wishes, his/her feelings, […]

虔誠的修道者要非常注意讓自己充滿天主。她總是常與耶穌親密結合：沒有什麼使她分心，沒有什麼使她焦慮，沒有什麼能阻止她上升到天主面前。常與天主結合一起——不僅在祈禱中，而且在她所有的工作中，甚至是微小的事上——就如同聖母一樣。(PrP I, 104) The holy religious has the great concern of filling herself with God. She is always united to Jesus: nothing disturbs her, nothing agitates her, nothing stops her […]

我還有一件事要特別告訴你們：你們有祈禱手冊。裡頭不只有禱文，還有指引。一開始是一種邀請：教導你們如何默想、朝拜聖體、省察等等，你們要常閱讀它。(PrP I, 11) One more thing for you in particular: you have the prayer book. There are not only formulas but also introductions. At the beginning is the invitation: how […]

將這一年獻給天主，為了你的團體將有許多美麗的聖召，並為了每個人能獲得成聖的恩寵。這些祈禱意向激發團結和仁愛，耶穌十分高興並鍾愛你們如心愛的小羊。(PrP I, 114) Offer the year to the Lord to obtain graces for your institute and for each one in particular: to the institute, many beautiful vocations; to each one, […]

悶悶不樂意味著沒有聖召。你們要心存虔誠，以及細膩敏銳的良知，為整個人生帶來歡樂。(PrP I, 117) To be a sourpuss is to have no vocation. Have much piety in your heart, deep delicacy of conscience, which will bring joy to your whole life […]
