"The all powerful Creator and Redeemer of mankind can give me, in spite of my weakness, a higher life and effective speech; because I love Him, I do not spare myself in speaking of Him."
~Saint Gregory the Great
Prayer
O God, help us to bring
our worldly concerns under control,
so that they never
turn our minds from higher things.
Help us have earthly things for our use
but not as objects of our desires.
May there be nothing to hold back
the desire of our mind;
and do not let the delights
of this world ensnare us. Amen.
- Pope St. Gregory I, the Great
