The Spirit and Our Hearts:

The heart is very closely linked to the spirit. The Spirit lives in the hearts of men. He becomes the life and movement, the breath of life and the inspiration of our hearts.

Labourers – Faith:

In today’s Gospel, Jesus laments that few people are willing to labour in the rich harvest of His vineyard. One of the main reasons for this is that the attractions of the secular and materialistic world are drawing people away from their interests in God. How true is this of you?

It is not the quantity of food, but a healthy digestion, which nourishes the body; so it is not the great amount of knowledge communicated, but the manner in which the heart receives it and is nourished by it that satisfies the needs of the soul.
