Refection A most excellent means of learning how to pray, is to acknowledge ourselves unworthy of such a benefit, and to put ourselves entirely into the hands of the Lord. St Philip Neri The main occupation of your soul should be to moderate its movements. It is good to desire your spiritual advancement, but this desire must be calm, humble and submissive to the will of God. Everything that comes from grace is gentle, humble and moderate.
