    Commemoration of Gilbert of Sempringham, Founder of the Gilbertine Order, 1189
Meditation:
    When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
    —Luke 18:22 (NIV)
Quotation:
