Prayer: Robert Bellarmine

Your God is gentle and mild. God does not command that while you are a pilgrim on earth you must utterly forgo creaturely consolations; indeed, God created all things to serve you. But God did command that you use them with moderation, sobriety, and temperance, that you share them cheerfully with the needy, that your possessions not be your master but you theirs, and that you use them to attain God.
