Chapter 58 pt. 1
The Rule of Benedict December 11
from April:
I feel that in some ways we are all, as an order, still novices in need of an elder who is skilled in winning souls. I find great peace in reading that one does not find one's way into a Benedictine life in an instant of decision, but by patience and persistence. Nor does one find one's way alone.
from August:
Let us seek to maintain within ourselves a spirit of deliberation regarding our life together and our individual places within it. We are still very much at the beginning of things--newcomers to a way of life that is coming into being as we live it.
