This discernment made him in an attitude of constant vigilance, and thus he knew how to answer his call to holiness of life

His faith was founded on the Resurrection of the Lord, on the glory revealed to the children of God, who are wisely able to perceive in the light of the holy Word of God, the insistent invitation of God that our feet may stand firm in the ways of Jesus Christ .
