It is not practical or profound enough. Do I ask myself if I am changing, if I am deepening my understanding of truths, if I am practicing them? Aren't there many domains in myself which are not animated by the spiritual? We don't actually want the light to penetrate too deeply so we don't have to change a particular habit, one that we suspect is a little bit bad but that we still want to keep. No! There must be no domain which is “my property.” I have to ask God with all my heart and all my will for light in every domain, to have generosity and tear out anything which is not pleasing to Him. • 12:00 – the Angelus • 18:00 – the Angelus
