No comments on Charles de Foucauld on Acting as Jesus

Beautiful, thoughtful, and memorable video with the following message of Brother Charles of Jesus, contemplative living in the midst of the world:

I should carry on in myself the life of Jesus: think his thoughts, repeat his words, his actions. May it be he that lives in me. I must be the image of Our Lord in his hidden life: I must proclaim, by my life, the Gospel from the rooftops.
