Virtue of the perfect, Vincent de Paul, Patience, Service of the PoorResumen
En su artículo «La virtud de lo perfecto: La paciencia en la vida, los escritos y las conferencias de San Vicente de Paúl», Robert Maloney, C.M., explora la lucha personal de San Vicente con la paciencia, a la que denomina “virtud de lo perfecto”. Maloney examina las enseñanzas de Vicente sobre la paciencia, destacando sus frecuentes defectos autoadmitidos y su énfasis en la paciencia de Cristo como modelo. El artículo profundiza en la aplicación que Vicente hace de la paciencia en diversos contextos, como la autorreflexión, la vida en comunidad, el servicio a los pobres y la resistencia al sufrimiento. Maloney también analiza el equilibrio de Vicente entre la confianza en la Divina Providencia y la adopción de medidas inmediatas cuando era necesario. El estudio concluye subrayando la relevancia duradera de la paciencia en los tiempos contemporáneos, estableciendo conexiones con las prácticas espirituales modernas y las enseñanzas del Papa Francisco.
