“Obedience raises us beyond the limits of our littleness and puts us in harmony with God’s will. Obedience is the one and the only way of wisdom and prudence for us to offer glory to God.”
                    ~St. Maximilian Mary Kolbe

For Reflection:
How have I experienced the truth of these words in my own life? How will this help me continue to exercise obedience?
