doing good

"On the contrary, you must realize now, more clearly than ever, that God is calling you to serve him in and from the ordinary, secular and civil activities of human life. He waits for us everyday, in the laboratory, in the operating theater, in the army barracks, in the university chair, in the factory, in the workshop, in the fields, in the home and in all the immense panorama of work.


Understand this well: there is something holy, something divine hidden in the most ordinary situations, and it is up to each one of you to discover it."

~ Passionately Loving the World, St. Josemaria Escriva


Came across an article today which had this excerpt from one of the more famous St. Escriva's sermons. Something worth revisiting whenever we don't find the fulfillment we expect at work. Simply put, wherever we are, we're meant to do good.
