Purity is not for us a renunciation or self-denial, but happiness.

It is not a loneliness of heart, but a readiness of heart for a big and mature love.

It is not for us a question, but an answer.

It is no longer a promise, but a reality.

It is high time to see the fruit of our purity. Loyalty that we kept to Christ reveals the purity in a new way.

What is purity for us now?

Think of what we actually did by taking the vow of purity?

We renounced marriage. But even then we knew that there is more – that it is giving ourselves to God’s love. Today, we live the other part as a God’s gift, as grace, as the inner consecration and the consecration of the innermost place of a human being, which is commonly called a heart.
