John 1:14

Fr. LaCordaire and the priesthood

Filed under: Blog — admin at 8:18 pm on Tuesday, January 22, 2008

      Compare St. Augustine’s view with that of Fr. LaCordaire:

     To live in the midst of the world without wishing its pleasures; to be a member of each family, yet belonging to none; to share all sufferings; to penetrate all secrets; to heal all wounds; to go from man to God and offer Him their prayers; to return from God to men to bring pardon and hope; to have a heart of fire for charity and a heart of bronze for chastity; to teach and to pardon, console and bless always. My God, what a life! And it is yours, O Priest of Jesus Christ!

Please pray for all priests and seminarians and support Sacred Heart Radio.
