Editor’s Note: In his book, The School of Jesus Crucified, Father Ignatius of the Side of Jesus, Passionist, outlines 25 points as a “Practical Rule of Christian Life for Daily Observance”. We will publish one a day: “Make it a rule to employ all your time in a Christian manner, punctually to fulfill all the obligations of your state of life, and carefully to avoid everything that can offend God and be hurtful to your soul. What bitter grief, agony, and despair is felt at the hour of death by those who have not led a Christian life, and who have made a bad use of that time which was given them solely to gain Heaven!”
