Br. Andrew Lyons, O.P., on Slow and Staedy Moral Growth

"I planted an acorn last October, and the sprout is now about three inches tall. That means each day, it's grown an average of 0.015 inches - about the thickness of an index card. Even at its imperceptibly slow pace, the seedling has grown to what it is now because it keeps that pace constantly. Every day it grows just a little bit. It doesn't grow in quick, dramatic spurts but in slow, steady motion.

"Take a look at the rest of the natural world around you, and you’ll see the same thing. . . ."

In a recent commentary, Brother Andrew Lyons, O.P., reflected on the importance of slow and steady growth in our moral life.
