| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
| 0:30.2 | Well, hey there, Sprouts. Today is Thursday, August 20th, 2020. This week on the Catholic Sprouts we are going through the 10th commandment. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's possession. |
| 0:40.1 | And we are learning that it's not enough just not to steal. We also need to pay attention to the intentions of our heart. Do we spend our time |
| 0:46.9 | desiring to have more? Do we plan our life in a way where we will get more money and be able to get |
| 0:54.0 | more things? Are we building |
| 0:56.2 | our future around things that we want? Or are we generously giving ourselves to other people and to God |
| 1:04.9 | so that God might use us to do His holy work? All week we have been talking about saints who really did make this |
| 1:13.4 | choice to turn away from possessions and instead give their whole life to God so that he might |
| 1:19.5 | use them for his incredible plan. We've already heard about St. Joan of the Cross, St. Louis of Toulouse, |

| 1:37.1 | Now, St. Bernard of Clairvo lived quite a long time ago. |
| 1:40.9 | He lived nearly 1,000 years ago. And as you can imagine, things were different then. |
| 1:46.2 | There were two groups of people, |
| 1:52.1 | essentially, when St. Bernard lived. There were people that were rich and lived in a castle, |
| 1:59.3 | but there weren't very many of those. Mostly, there were just very poor people that farmed and barely made enough from their crops to survive. |
| 2:03.6 | Well, the St. Bernard of Clairvaux was born into a rich family in a castle, and he could |
| 2:09.7 | have lived there all of his life and not had very many worries, but that's not what he decided |
| 2:15.3 | to do. Instead, St. Bernard of Clairvote decided to walk away from this life of |
| 2:20.8 | comfort and luxury and instead become a monk. And as a monk, he owned nothing. In fact, monks took a vow of |
| 2:30.3 | poverty and they owned even less than the poor farmers at this time. So he could have been |
| 2:37.7 | rich, but instead he decided to live very poor. But even while he was poor, God used St. Bernard |
