What a mix of emotions the followers of Jesus must have experienced. What uncertainty! Consider others as they are in the midst of their own drastic changes. Some have lost jobs while others have lost their homes. Finances have been depleted, but their children are still hungry. Where are they to turn? As we step into Lent in 2021, chastened by nearly a year of living with and through the Coronavirus pandemic, the theme of this year’s Lenten devotions may seem a bit strange—Walk Humbly. It comes from the book of the Old Testament prophet Micah, “What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8) What does “walking humbly with God” mean in these days? Perhaps it is just treading lightly on the earth, realizing that our time here is short and we are all more fragile than we previously real- ized. Over the next 47 days, as you read these devotions, you’ll share in the reflections and prayers of a diverse group of writers and thinkers, all contemplating Micah 6:8 from within the time of the pandemic.

  • Chapter III the FOUR VINCENTIAN VOWS: YESTERDAY and TODAY
    Chapter III THE FOUR VINCENTIAN VOWS: YESTERDAY AND TODAY Those who become detached from the desire for worldly goods, from the longing for pleasure, and from their own will become children of God. They enjoy perfect freedom. For it is only in the love of God that real freedom is found. They are people who are free, who know no law, who fly, who go left and right, who fly still more. No one can hold them back They are never slaves of the devil nor of their own passions. Oh, how happy is the freedom of the children of God! SV XII, 301 Since the publication of the previous chapter in an earlier form,' many people have encouraged me to attempt something similar in regard to the four Vincen- tian vows.' I am grateful for their stimulating me to engage in the research and reflection whose fruits I offer below. As with all such projects, I have been helped enormously by the research of others,' particularly in the first part of the chapter. But I have also attempted to examine the writings of St. Vincent anew. I. "Five Characteristic Virtues: Yesterday and Today," Vincentiuiw 29 (1985) 226-254. 2. Many have encouraged me by their use of my article on the five virtues in retreats and formation programs and by their translating it into various languages. But I am especially grateful to J.-O. Baylach, former editor of Vincentiana, who was the first to suggest the idea of another article focusing on the vows. I hope that what I have written here addresses the topic at least somewhat adequately.
