See that you all follow the bishop, even as Jesus Christ does the Father, and the presbytery as you would the apostles; and reverence the deacons, as being the institution of God. Let no man do anything connected with the Church without the bishop. Let that be deemed a proper Eucharist, which is [administered] either by the bishop, or by one to whom he has entrusted it. Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church.
St. Ignatius of Antioch
Little
Having a little baby is a great way to practice self giving. Her need of constant attention means that there is little time to even think about our selfish needs. Serving her makes it very plain what actually matters in life.
It is a great joy to serve God, through the little things we do to our little ones.
