We should always remember to tithe, as this is very important to keep the church running, and it is also an offering to God. For the month of January our expenses were more than our income by $483. So we started off the year in the red.
A worker takes the trouble to get hold of the instruments that he requires. He does so not simply to have them and not use them. Nor is there any profit for him in merely possessing the instruments. What he wants is, with their help, to produce the crafted objective for which these are the efficient means. In the same way, fasting, vigils, scriptural meditation, and total deprivation do not constitute perfection but are the means to perfection. They are not in themselves the end point of a discipline, but an end is attained through them. St. John Cassian
