“…the sweet fragrance of Christ noticed among men [is] not in a sudden burst of flame, but in the constant red-hot embers of virtues such as justice, loyalty, faithfulness, understanding, and cheerfulness.”

                                                                                    St. Josemaria Escriva

For Reflection:

What is St. Josemaria communicating about an authentic witness to Christ in this quotation? Of the virtues listed above, which are “red-hot” in me? Which are growing cold and in what specific way today can I heat them up?
