Cardinal Luis Tagle of Manila told pilgrims at a popular annual procession in the Philippines to take caution against becoming “fanatics,” stressing that true devotion is about how one lives one’s whole life, not a single day.
“A fanatic does not love,” the cardinal told thousands gathered at midnight Mass. “Fanatics hold on to who gives importance to them. But a devotee … is devoted because of love, and that is what Jesus showed us. Devotion is a daily act…. In every kind of love, loyalty, and union, it must be daily.”
