III. Meditation: Life worthy of the calling
You have swept away our transgressions like a cloud,
and our sins like a mist; you have redeemed us;
you want us-you call us to return to you.
You call us to a life worthy of our calling,
one filled with humility, gentleness, and patience,
bearing with one another in love, freely giving to the poor.
