10 April 5th Week of Lent
Wednesday
Grace acts in history; ordinarily it takes hold of us and transforms us progressively (Gaudete et exsultate 50).
John 8;11-42
‘I tell you the truth everyone who sins is a slave to sin.’
The true and genuine law of life is this: Grace does not destroy nature, it elevates and perfects it. … If I am living under the influence of grace, this does not absolve me from the duty to strive for genuine and noble humanity. Holiness must be synonymous with genuine, spontaneous and ennobles humanity. (Retreat 1929 – JK)
