Lens of Patience



“Let the abbot always remember that at the fearful judgment of God, not only his teaching but also his disciples’ obedience will come under scrutiny.” (RB 2.6)



How do you experience God’s scrutiny? St. Benedict sees it through the lens of patience, loving kindness and the ability to forgive and be forgiven. How amazingly difficult it is for us to allow God to be God in our lives!


Sr. Barbara, OSB
