3. 歸依－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄
In this Lent, the Church reminds us that God expects our free response. For that reason, “Lent should suggest to us these basic questions: Am I advancing in my faithfulness to Christ, in my desire for holiness, in a generous apostolate in my daily life, in my ordinary work among my colleagues?
在這個四旬期，教會提醒我們，天主期待我們的自由回應。因此，「四旬期應該向我們提出一些基本問題：我是否在對主基督的忠誠、在對聖德的渴望、在日常生活中慷慨地作使徒工作，以及在同事間的日常工作中有所進步？」
“Each one of us, silently, should answer these questions, and each will see that he needs to change again if Christ is to live in him, if Jesus’ image is to be reflected clearly in his behavior.” St Josemaría
聖施禮華說道：「我們每個人都應該默默地回答這些問題，每個人都會看到，如果主基督要住在他內，如果主耶穌的肖象要清楚地反映在他的行為中，他需要再次改變。」
Do not think that following Christ is only in time of persecution or when one has the chance of martyrdom, but in all circumstances, in everything you do and think, in everything you say, may you deny what you used to be and confess what you now are, reborn as you have been in Christ.
不要以為跟隨主基督只是在被迫害的時候，或是一個人有機會殉道的時候，而是在所有情況下，在你所行和思考的一切事務中，在你所說的每一件事上，願你拋棄你過去的樣子，承認你現在的自己，就像你已經在主基督內「重生」一樣。
Conversion is the task of a moment; sanctification is the work of a lifetime. The divine seed of charity, which God has sown in your soul, wants to grow, to express itself in action, to yield results which continually coincide with what God wants from you. Therefore, you must be ready to begin again, to find again – in new situations – the light and the stimulus of your first conversion. You must prepare yourself with a deep examination of conscience, asking our Lord for his help, so that you will know him and yourself better. If you want to be converted again, there’s no other way.
「歸依」是一時的事；成聖是一輩子的工作。天主在你的靈魂內播下的愛德的神聖種子，要它成長起來，以行動來表達它，產生與天主想要你不斷地偕同一致的結果。因此，你必須準備好重新開始，在全新的情況下再次找到你第一次「歸依」的光和熱情。你必須用深刻的良心省察來準備自己，向吾主尋求祂的幫助，這樣，你才能更加地瞭解祂和你自己。如果您想要再次地「歸依」，沒有其他方法。
