Pope Benedict XVI's 3 Simple Rules for Holiness

On April 13, 2011 Pope Benedict addressed approximately 12,000 people in St. Peter's Square on how to live a holy life.  I liked them so much that I'm going to post them here:

1.  "Never let a Sunday go by without an encounter with the risen Christ in the Eucharist; this is not an added burden, it is light for the entire week.”

2.  “Never begin or end a day without at least a brief contact with God in prayer."

3.  "And along the pathway of our lives, follow the road signs that God has given us in the Ten Commandments, read in the light of Christ; they are nothing other than explanations of what is love in specific situations.”

He also went on to explain that we can learn a lot from the saints that have gone before us and that we are ALL called to holiness!

I first read this on a blog yesterday and sadly, I can't recall which one!  So, I googled it and found it on
National Catholic Register.

Today also happens to be L.A.C.E. Wednesday with my blogging friend Trish.  I've linked up with her today at http://angelwingsandapronstrings.blogspot.com/  Please come and check out her site and the other lovely ladies who are linking up.

Philippians 4:8 Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things.
