Do you
possess the gift of chastity, dear sisters?
It is that gift through which one not only preserves the body unsullied,
but . . . also struggles to reach purity of spirit, which banishes all useless,
alien, and distracting thoughts; purity of heart, which bridles all inordinate
inclinations and longings; purity of conscience, which shuns all voluntary
sins; purity of action, in which one does everything for, with, and because of
God. Trust
and Dare, July 13; MT 2940
