Give of one's best.



It dawned on me today that we can give a little, or give a lot. The choice is ours.


When we read the lives of the saints and look at their approach to love, they believed in giving whole-heartily.


St. Teresa of Avila took a vow to always do the most perfect thing, whatever that might be.


She believed in giving of her best. Nothing but her best was good enough.


So, there's a high standard for all of us who might find it hard to be a total giver.


Love is all embracing and would ask us to always give of our best.
