一個人如果熱誠地懇求,就會有所進步
一個人如果有好的意向,並熱誠地懇求,就會有所進步。度過的時光不會白白流逝……你會發現自己在德行、耐心、與主的共融,以及各種德行都更加進步。(APD56, 65) If on one side there is good will and, on the other, there is the demand, the prayer, the supplication, one will go ahead, the years will not […]

禮儀性的祈禱能讓耶穌基督來到我們身邊,居於我們的生活、思想、工作及愛中。良心省察與祈禱,則能鼓舞人心,是基督徒持續且重要的渴望。(Requiescite pusillum, 2, 136) Liturgical prayer especially draws Jesus Christ to us in our living, thinking, working, loving. Examination of conscience and prayer: this is the continuous and vital aspiration […]
祈禱是生活中最重要的。誘惑可能讓你想:「我工作很多、太忙了。」但對你來說祈禱是最優先的工作。對修會的主要貢獻就是祈禱。(CSP, 98)
祈禱提升心靈,將光榮歸天主,同時也祈求為我們有用的東西。聖寵如同興奮劑激發我們的能量,使我們堅定成熟。貧困的、體弱的靈魂喊出需要與訴求。(Requiescite pusillum, 2, 138s) Prayer is the elevation of the mind that gives honour to God and at the same time a request for us about the things that are […]
不斷祈禱,永不停歇。這句話意思是:必須時時祈禱,堅持到底,絕不停止,因為只要奮鬥,就能得勝。(APD56, 55) Pray to the Lord. And never cease doing it: “oportet semper orare et numquam deficere.” Which means: it is necessary to always pray and not give up, never […]
「憑我自己,我一無所能,靠主恩佑,我一切都能。」我們一面謙遜,另一面同時信靠主,就會不斷進步。(APD56, 55) “By myself I can do nothing, with God I can do everything.” Humility on the one hand, trust in the Lord on the other, and one will progress, […]
祈求人人彼此相愛。願只有一種思想、一顆心、一種語言、一種言論、一種行事方式。大家都說要愛自己,這並沒有錯,但為什麼世界仍充滿著不和諧?因為有許多的「我」在管理。如果天主至高為王,是獨一無二的,那麼就有合一。(APD 56, 289) Pray that everyone love one another. Let there be one mind, one heart, one language, one speech, and one way of doing. Yes, love well. The world […]
讓我們穿上天主,換成天主的心、耶穌的心、思想與意願。儘管成員眾多,但我們是一體,是耶穌所思、所愛、所要的。單獨一人在不和諧的環境中,該如何生存呢?(APD56, 283) Let us clothe ourselves with God, the heart of God, the heart of Jesus, the mind of Jesus, the will of Jesus. Then there is only one in […]
領受天主的恩寵並肖似祂的方法,常常是保持謙遜,因為恩寵如雨水落在山上,流到低谷。水不停留在山上,因此驕傲、位居高處的人得不到天主的恩寵。(APD56, 58) The way and the disposition to receive God’s graces is always humility, since grace is like water: water falls on the mountain and flows to the valleys. The […]
我們發現福音中某幾頁、某些段落似乎是為我們寫的。它們來自天上導師的勸誡,在我們看來,祂現今仍在說話,在我們看來,祂活生生的話語現在仍然滲入我們的靈魂。(APD56, 25) In the Gospel we will find some pages and some speeches that seem to have been written for us, some exhortations of the Divine Master that still speak […]
以耶穌向人傳福音的愛和精神來閱讀福音。耶穌唯一的目的是光榮天父並教導心靈的、現世暫時的與永恆的和平道路。讓我們努力使自己成為真正的門徒……福音來自耶穌的聖心;要以充滿愛的心去詮釋福音。(LS 310) Read the Gospel with that love and spirit with which Jesus preached it to men. He aimed solely to glorify the Father and teach men the way of […]
天堂是天主的產業:只要我們放棄自己的意願,就能擁抱天主的旨意。(APD56, 406) Paradise is the possession of God: God is possessed as much as we renounce our will in order to embrace God’s will (APD56, 406).
