Offer only the best

‘You must bring the best of the first-fruits of your soil to the house of the Lord your God."
Ex 34:26

你田中最上等的初熟之果，應獻到上主你的天主的殿中。

First thing in the morning, kiss the crucifix. Offer Him everything you will say, or do or think during the day. Love Him with a deep, personal, intimate love--and you will become a holy priest.

(Blessed Mother Teresa, Advice to a priest, Come Be My Light, p 327)

4 Quoniam ad te orabo, Domine,
mane exaudies vocem meam;
mane astabo tibi et exspectabo.
5 Quoniam non Deus volens iniquitatem tu es;
neque habitabit iuxta te malignus,
6 neque permanebunt iniusti ante oculos tuos.

As I pray to you in the morning,
Lord, listen to my voice;
in the morning I will stand before you and await you.
You are not a God who loves evil.
The wicked cannot stay near you,
the unjust cannot remain in your presence.

(Psalm 5:40-6)
