A deacon is like an adolescent: not a child, not yet an adult; not a layman, not yet a priest. "Ordination is a day of fulfillbut in another way a preliminary step to being made priest forever after the order of Melchizedech. A primal fact and permanent element in this is to be a deacon after the order of the Son of Man.
"A deacon is to minister to the needs of men in name of God. He represents the diaconal concern, the humanitarian concern cf the church, but represents this in its spiritual dimension, in union with Christ the Deacon.

The danger of good deeds service to others, the danger of do-gooders, is that it makes us act like God. If in acting like God, we forget God, we then pretend to be, God.
To minister to others is not to be Him from all blessings flow, but to be agent of the humanity of the Son of Man Who looks to God."
