More wisdom from St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

 
 
 

What was the first rule of our dear Savior’s life? You know it was to do his Father’s will. Well, then, the first end I propose in our daily work is to do the will of God; secondly, to do it in the manner he wills it; and thirdly, to do it because it is his will.

—St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
