Reason #482 to read the Catechism

Besides the fact that it’s just something you should do, occasionally you come across some real spiritual gems.  This one I found timely as a Lenten reflection:

My Lord and my God, take from me everything that distances me from you.

My Lord and my God, give me everything that brings me closer to you.

My Lord and my God, detach me from myself to give my all to you.

– St. Nicholas of Flüe

Why “Ubi Petrus?”

Ubi Petrus ibi ecclesia, et ibi ecclesia vita eterna.
