The Word of God moves swiftly; He is not won by the lukewarm, nor held fast by the negligent.  Let your soul be attentive to His word; follow carefully the pat God tells  you to take, for He is swift in His passing.
– St. Ambrose, On Virginity

The path to which God called St. Lucy led her to the crown of martyrdom. What path is God calling me to walk? Is there anything impeding my progress on it — lukewarmness or negligence? St. Lucy, pray for me that I might see clearly and move swiftly to fulfill God’s most holy will. Amen.
