Thoughts from St Alphonsus for Every Day-December 22

THE most perfect are not free from all defects. You yourself are subject to faults; and, not­withstanding your manifold imperfections you expect to be treated with charity and compassion. You should, therefore, according to the advice of the Apostle, compassionate the defects of others. Bear ye one another's burdens.
