Chapter 2: Gifts needed by an abbot or abbess (paragraphs 5 & 6)

This means that they should criticize more sternly those who are undisciplined and unruly; they should entreat those who are obedient, docile and patient so as to encourage their progress, but they should rebuke and punish those who take a feckless attitude or show contempt for what they are taught. (From para. 5 of Ch. 2 of Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry, OSB, 1997.)

I must enter the silence of my own heart and find God there, in order to know myself in relation to him. Then I am able to see others with the eye of my heart.  In this way I can see them for who they truly are.
