Inconsistency

A quote from Catherine:

We must often beg of God to preserve us from the dreadful inconsistency, of
contradicting our faith and our religious profession, by our actions.

The old saying, "actions speak louder than words" comes to mind as I reflect upon this saying today. What are my actions toward all whom I meet this day. Do I walk away in midstream of a conversation instead of staying in the now? That's one of my bad habits. How do I stop and really listen to another?

I have a song playing on my computer right now, "...Show me the way all through the day..."
I think that will be my theme song today. "Show me the way"...so that my actions will speak of my faith and not contradict it. "All through the day"... so that I will not be a contradiction to my profession.
