LIFE OF SAINT GERARD MAJELLA
rejoiced in the careful discharge of humble offices, knowing that
nothing is really small that is done with a single eye for the glory of
God.
The Brothers whom Saint Gerard loves with a deep fraternal love
may ever remember to their comfort that their work, of little account
in the eyes of men, is that by which he became so great in the eyes of
God; while it was his charity — the virtue which all who would save
their souls must practice — that made him so dear to the Sacred
Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and also to those — his brethren
here below — whose lives grew sweet and pleasant through the
fragrance of his heavenly and also of his human loving-kindness.
