“The great women always recall us to the deeper needs and the greater destinies; and so they try to save the world from the shallow, the slick, the facile, and the cruel, and to show us that the world of men is not meant to be either a battlefield or a laboratory, but a family.”
–Gerald Vann, O. P.
Today’s Reflection:
Who are some of the great women saints to whom this quote rightly applies? To what extent does it apply to me? To what “deeper needs” and “greater destinies” do I witness through the words and actions of my life?
