This is what I read today when I opened the Imitation of Christ and He and I.
Nature labours for her own interest, and considers what gain she may reap from another. But grace considers not what may be advantageous and profitable to herself, but rather what may be profitable to many (1 Cor X 33) Source: Imitation of Christ Book III Chapter 54 Interiour Consolation Nature and Grace
33 As I also in all things please all men, not seeking that which is profitable to myself, but to many, that they may be saved. (1 Cor X 33) Source: http://catholicbible.online/side_by_side/NT/1_Cor/ch_10
February 26 - Visiting: Don't speak when you should be silent. And don't keep silence when you should speak. Source: He and I by Gabrielle Bossis Part 2pg 147
It causes me to think that when I just do my duty according to my state in life, it seems more rewarding in a quiet sort of way.
