September 6~ St. Eleutherius, Abbot

St. Eleutherius was favored by God with the gift of miracle
He exorcised a child possessed by the devil. He also raised a dead
man to life.

The just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus. ~Gradual: Psalm xli

Whilst thou hast time, amass for thyself immortal riches. Think of nothing but thy salvation; care only for the things; of God. ~Imitation, Book I

Ideal: This saint raised a dead man to life and worked many miracles; nevertheless, when once he committed a slight fault of vainglory, he did public penance for it. It requires greater courage than we think (until we have done it) to acknowledge a fault at all; it requires more courage to acknowledge that fault among people who think very highly of us.

Today: Try to catch yourself during leisure moments and note what your thoughts are. It will help you get to know what kind of person you are.

Slogan: As a man thinketh, so he is. ~Psalms.
