Gratitude is a rare virtue among people …

St. Ignatius Bryanchaninov

Let us rejoice in our brothers and sisters! Do you see someone excelling faster than you? Applaud them. Has someone served with great humility near you? Tell them you love them and pray for them. Is someone more knowledgeable than you? Praise God for that person.

We were never meant to be the fastest or the smartest…or the best. We were meant to serve our God with everything that we have been given.

I was called to serve God with what He gave me. Not what He gave you. For what He gave you, I was called to sing His and your praises.

Hold tight to the beauty of your brothers and sisters. They exhibit the glory of God.
