August 16

Feast of St. Stephen of Hungary (969 – 1038)

 “Be strong lest prosperity lift you up too much or adversity cast you down. Be humble in this life, that God may raise you up in the next. Be truly moderate and do not punish or condemn anyone immoderately. Be gentle so that you may never oppose justice. Be honorable so that you may never voluntarily bring disgrace upon anyone. Be chaste so that you may avoid all the foulness of lust like the pangs of death.”

                                                                                    -St. Stephen

 Today Reflection:

Which one admonition of St. Stephen to his son do I most need to hear today? How can I work with the virtue to replace the vice?
