THOUGHT OF THE DAY
First, last and only.
In the sacristy of the church is usually a registration for the priest to be coated, which says something like, "Priest, celebrates this Mass as if it were your first Mass, your only your last Mass and Mass".
Translating this to the common life of each one of us, we should also make every action of life, every prayer, every act of mercy like the first one and the last, and so then what good would employ the time often wasted on nonsense and useless pastimes.How well we do all things! And we would enjoy would realize more and more responsibility, trying to make the best possible.
Let us resolve, as of now, start with this mood, and as the first action we have to do, let us strive to make it perfectly, but especially like the first, the only and last. And a good incentive to do this is doing everything to Mary, having her as our engine to act, and so then our actions will not only be excellent, but will have a great redemptive value and to be more useful even from the point of human perspective.
