<description><![CDATA[‘No one after lighting a lamp hides it under a jar, or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light.
For nothing is hidden that will not be disclosed, nor is anything secret that will not become known and come to light.
Then pay attention to how you listen; for to those who have, more will be given; and from those who do not have, even what they seem to have will be taken away.’
Then his mother and his brothers came to him, but they could not reach him because of the crowd.
And he was told, ‘Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.’
But he said to them, ‘My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.’]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[People were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them; and when the disciples saw it, they sternly ordered them not to do it.
But Jesus called for them and said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs.
Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it.’]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Unto us a little Child is born, and "emptying out" his majesty God has taken on himself not merely the earthly body of mortal men but even the weakness and insignificance of children. O blessed childhood, whose weakness and foolishness is stronger and wiser than any man; for it is the strength and wisdom of God that does his work in us, does the work of God in men. It is the very weakness of this Child that triumphs over the prince of this world, binds the strong man armed, takes the cruel tyrant captive, looses our captivity and sets us free. This Child's seeming dumbness, his childhood's simplicity, makes the tongues of children eloquent, makes them speak with the tongues of men and angels... It is he, who seems to know nothing, who teaches knowledge to men and angels, for he is the very God of all knowledge, the Wisdom of God, the Word. 

O sweet and sacred childhood, which brought back man's true innocence, by which men of every age can return to blessed childhood and be conformed to you, not in physical weakness but in humility of heart and holiness of life. In a word then you sons of Adam, who are exceedingly great in your own eyes... unless you are converted and become like this little Child, you shall not enter into the kingdom of Heaven. "I am the Gate of the Kingdom," this little Child says, and unless man's proud head is bowed the doorway of humility will not let him in.

<description><![CDATA[I hate, I despise your festivals, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies.
Even though you offer me your burnt-offerings and grain-offerings, I will not accept them; and the offerings of well-being of your fatted animals I will not look upon.
Take away from me the noise of your songs; I will not listen to the melody of your harps.
But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Jesus also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and regarded others with contempt:
‘Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax-collector.
The Pharisee, standing by himself, was praying thus, "God, I thank you that I am not like other people: thieves, rogues, adulterers, or even like this tax-collector.
I fast twice a week; I give a tenth of all my income."
But the tax-collector, standing far off, would not even look up to heaven, but was beating his breast and saying, "God, be merciful to me, a sinner!"
I tell you, this man went down to his home justified rather than the other; for all who exalt themselves will be humbled, but all who humble themselves will be exalted.’]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Someone who celebrates alone in the heart of the wilderness,
is a great assembly.
If two together celebrate among the rocks,
thousands and tens of thousands are present there.
If three are gathered together,
a fourth is among them.
If there are six or seven together,
twelve thousand thousand are assembled.
If they range themselves in rank,
they fill the firmament with prayer!

If they be crucified on the rock, marked  with a cross of light,
the Church is constituted.
When they come together,
the Spirit hovers over their heads,
When they end their prayer
the Lord rises to serve his servants (Lk 12:37; Jn 13:4).]]></description>
