"You must realize
that I fondly love the perfection about which the Lord spoke when he said
to the rich young man: "Go, sell all that you have and give to the
poor, and you will have treasure in heaven, and come, follow me."
Not by my own strength, but with the aid of God's grace have I done this.
Persons who give up both what they possess and what they hope to possess
give up the whole world. I encourage others to embrace this holy goal."
Letter 157, 39
Prayer: Come, Lord, into my soul, which
you have prepared for your own reception by inspiring in me a longing for
your goodness.
