Reading: Apply these words of our divine Lord. First of all, ask ourselves: In our dealings with God are we simple, are we humble? Our fundamental relations with God are these. The thought is very simple. He is our creator. He is everything. He has everything. He knows everything. He wants for nothing. He is infinitely self‑sufficient. He is our God, our Creator. (MCM, p. 242)
