For the mission, we need men devoted to the glory of God, men determined to give up everything for him, men who have already got the better of their principal defects or who are at least in the process of doing so, and from whom there is not much hope. Furthermore, we need people who are capable of suffering the greatest pains and humiliations.
Francis Libermann
Cf. Notes and Documents, I, 662, 1839.
Pour la mission, il faut des hommes dévoués à la gloire de Dieu, des hommes décidés à quitter tout pour lui, des hommes qui se soient déjà vaincus sur les principaux de leurs défauts ou au moins qui soient en train de se vaincre, et pour lesquels on peut espérer beaucoup. En outre, il faut des gens capables de souffrir les plus grandes peines et les plus grandes humiliations.
François Libermann
Cf. Notes et Documents, I, 662, 1839.
Para a missão, são precisos homens dedicados à glória de Deus, homens decididos a deixar tudo por Ele, homens que tenham já vencido os seus principais defeitos ou ao menos estejam a caminho de os vencer, e dos quais se pode esperar muito. Além disso, são precisas pessoas capazes de suportar os maiores sofrimentos e as maiores humilhações.
Francisco Libermann
Cf. Notas e Documentos, II, 165, 1868.
Sometimes we become almost drugged by our work, to the detriment of our openness, our relationships with others and our prayer life. We become so attached to our job that we identify ourselves with it and we cannot imagine us doing anything else. But there are frontiers to be crossed, moments of generosity to be lived, in which we are willing to leave our work and our position and admit that others can continue it and do so just as well as us.

Parfois, nous devenons "des drogués du travail", au détriment de l'ouverture, des relations et de la prière. Nous nous attachons à une œuvre au point de nous identifier avec elle. Peut-être ne voyons-nous pas quels nouveaux engagements nous pourrions prendre. Mais il y a des seuils à passer, des moments de disponibilité à quitter notre travail ou notre position avec joie et avec cette foi que d'autres peuvent continuer et faire aussi bien.

Por vezes, tornamo-nos “escravos do trabalho”, com prejuízo da abertura, do relacionamento e da oração. Prendemo-nos tanto a uma obra a ponto de nos identificarmos com ela. Talvez não vejamos que novos compromissos poderíamos tomar. Mas há limites a transpor, momentos de disponibilidade para deixar o nosso trabalho ou a nossa posição com alegria e com esta certeza que outros podem continuar e também fazer bem.
