El estudio de la Biblia es un camino seguro hacia el discipulado dedicado y la santidad. El amor por la Palabra de Dios es un amor y el hambre intensa colocada en nuestros corazones por Dios.

Me encanta la Cuaresma. Por favor no me malentiendan. No es que yo acepte la penitencia o la abnegación con más entusiasmo que los demás. ¡El espíritu está dispuesto, pero la carne es débil!
