Lives February 24-26, 2017

Saint Benedict is the master of balance. He teach-

anything, without being mediocre. He encour-

night’s natural rhythms, of summer and winter,

of hunger and satisfaction, of sleeping and being

awake, of praying and working. This allows us

to conquer exaggerations of an any kind. This is

a great opportunity to reflect on our way of life.
