Fr. Michael Rossmann, SJ, offers a brief reflection on the unofficial Jesuit motto, “Ad majorem Dei gloriam.” In part, he says, “Seeking our own glory is like running on a treadmill that never stops, but when our work is an offering to God, every task, whether it’s praised by others or not, carries its own satisfaction.”
Fr. Rossmann is the author of The Freedom of Missing Out: Letting Go of Fear and Saying Yes to Life.
