Is your heart open?
August 31
"The soul of woman must be expansive and open to all human beings, it must be quiet so that no small weak flame will be extinguished by stormy winds; warm so as not to benumb fragile buds … empty of itself, in order that extraneous life may have room in it; finally, mistress of itself and also of its body, so that the entire person is readily at the disposal of every call."
-St. Edith Stein

Restraining a hasty word
August 28

-Saint Thérèse of Lisieux

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
