“The second piece of spiritual armor, the breastplate, protects the most vital part of the combatant. Your breast must be protected with holy thoughts. They must fill your heart and strengthen it inwardly and defend it as with impenetrable armor. The cuirass of righteousness is the third piece we put on. It is difficult to walk in armor but facility comes with practice. We must wear our armor as true knights of Christ, nor bring dishonor on our arms. We must wear our habit with the understanding that it marks us out as following Him, Who is God.”

Bl. Titus Brandsma
