Prologue to The Rule (paragraph 3)


Let us open our eyes to the light that can change us into the likeness of God. (From para. 3 of The Prologue to The Rule from Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry, OSB, 1997.)

I know that light is always with me, even as the smallest particles in the darkness. What could it mean for me to change into the likeness of God except to attune myself to that light, and, at every moment, to be awake, to be love, to be free.
