THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

The earth also needs time to rest. We have already spoken of fallow fields
in agriculture, this tradition of letting a field which has been tilled for a few
years rest for a year so that it can restore itself. The earth also needs to rebuild
its strength.
To help us move forward let us be aware of the importance of Sunday. Let
us keep in mind the dignity of the person, the pure value of the family and the
priority, the primacy of God in our lives.

When we take Sunday as a day of rest, 
it gives time to replenish ourselves from one week
to another. Sunday gives us time to renew our

thoughts on the value of every human being and
on the dignity and pure value of the family.
