In chastity
Clare, with a pure and unified heart, lived the gift of belonging totally to Christ, who filled her life with
a simple and transparent joy by making her
fully woman,
"mother, sister and wife"
|
At the center of our emotional life lies a personal relationship with Christ, from whom comes a capacity of an absolute love for Him that manifests itself concretely in the fraternal relationship and the opening of our hearts to every creature.
|
When participating in the call to a
chaste life, we recognize in Christ the one true love, who alone can quench our thirst of loving and being loved.
