don't be hasty [work]

Sometimes, we want to get things done.

touch and communion

Among the five senses at our command, touch is the first to be developed starting even at our mother’s bosom, and it forms the point of origin for all the others. It doesn’t have the richness of some of the other senses, like vision (with all the diversity of images that we can ponder) or hearing (encountering the variety of sounds, melodies). It is the most primordial but the most essential sense in life and in communication. And it possesses an advantage other senses don’t have: reciprocity.

This term underlines the state acquired by the members of the People of God through Baptism (cf A. del Portillo, Faithful and Laity in the Church, pp15 ff). But a person who inspires confidence, whom we can trust, can also be called faithful. People like this live up to the confidence placed in them, to the demands of love, friendship or duty . This kind of person keeps his word. In Holy Scripture the term ‘faithful’ is applied to God himself because no one is more worthy of trust than He. God is always faithful to his promises; he never fails to keep his word. In Saint Paul’s words: God is faithful and he will not let you be tempted beyond your strength (1 Cor 10:13).
