Sunday, November 10 : Saint Augustine
Extend your charity to the whole world, if you want to love Christ; Because the members of Christ are spread out over the world. If you love only a part, you are separated; If you separated, you are not in the body; If you are not in the body, you are not under your head. What is the point of believing and then blasphemy? You love Him as your head; You blasphemy in his body. He loves his body. If, you, you separate from his body, He your head does not separate from His body. It is in vain that you honor me, she cries out from heaven, it is in vain that you honor me. As if someone wanted to kiss your face, but crushing your feet. Here he is, of his shoes, grinds your feet, wanting to grab your head and kiss it; Wouldn’t you interrupt his demonstration of respect by shouting, “What are you doing man, you are crushing me!” So our Lord Jesus Christ, before going up to heaven, entrusted his body to us, by which he was going to remain on earth. He saw that many would honor him in his glory, but he saw that their honors would be in vain, because they would despise His members on earth.
