“Prayer, fasting, vigils, and all other Christian practices, however good they may be in themselves, certainly do not constitute the aim of our Christian life: they are but the indispensable means of attaining that aim.

Note well that it is only good works done in the name of Christ that bring us the fruits of the Spirit.”
