November 11

St. Martin of Tours


Chapter 34

The Rule of Benedict November 11

From March:

In this chapter, Father Benedict demonstrates the gentleness with which we are to treat each other and ourselves.  Our endeavors together are not in the service of an ideal or even of a vow or promise made, they are to form us into souls who are fully at home where God is at home.  And if we are to be formed at all, we must be formed from where we are right now.  Let us be present to our weaknesses and humble enough to acknowledge them.  This is the only way forward.
