A New Heart
Eleven Qualities of Holiness
Author: Robert Morneau Paperback What does it mean to live a holy life? Here are eleven virtues that can change our hearts and transform our lives. Robert Morneau opens up a prayer of Dag Hammarskjold (1905-1961), invites us into it, and expands it so we can know and manifest the power of God that is within us and all around us. Give me a pure heart, that I may see Thee,
a humble heart, that I may hear Thee,
a heart of love, that I may serve Thee,
a heart of faith, that I may abide in Thee,
a heart of courage, that I may follow Thee,
a heart of joy, that I may sing with Thee,
a heart of praise, that I may adore Thee,
a heart of gratitude, that I may thank Thee,
a heart of kindness, that I may emulate Thee,
a heart of hospitality, that I may welcome Thee,
a heart of hope, that I may trust in Thee. To help us embody these aspects of holiness and turn them into life-changing habits, Bishop Morneau shares his own life-experiences, examples of the saints, meditations, and inspiring poetry, traditional and new.
