To live a serene life

Forgive and pray, in order to live your life serenely. And do not do to others that which you do not want them to do to you, or return the evil which they have done to you.

A holy end to our lives

Good deeds and love for one's neighbor will result in a holy end for everyone who inwardly supplicates, "Save me, my Christ."  Through love and prayer, he will be saved.

Wisdom for this transient life

Examine yourself and strive to adorn it with love, humility, compassion and hope.  Seek the regeneration of your soul, enlightened by the voice of the Gospel and helped by God.  With fear and love for the Heavenly Father, proceed to sow the seeds of God's word on good soil.  Cultivate the talent given by Christ for the salvation of your soul.
