Knowing and loving God…
What a vast difference there is between knowing God and loving Him.
–Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)
Time heals for we change…
Time heals griefs and quarrels, for we change and are no longer the same persons.
–Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)
Redeemed from myself…
Praised be the Lord, who has redeemed me from myself!
–Saint Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)
Walk with God continually…
Take God for your spouse and friend and walk with Him continually, and you will not sin, will learn to love, and the things you must do will work out prosperously for you.
–Saint Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)
Reading the lives of Saints…
Reading the lives of the Saints is a great means to preserve piety.
–Saint Philip Neri (1515-1595)
We can know God personally…
Jesus makes a claim which no one would have dared to make: He is the perfect revelation of God. Our knowledge of God is not simply limited to knowing something about God – who he is and what he is like. We can know God personally and be united with him in a relationship of love, trust, and friendship. Jesus makes it possible for each of us to personally know God as our Father. To see Jesus is to see what God is like. In Jesus we see the perfect love of God – a God who cares intensely and who yearns over men and women, loving them to the point of laying down his life for them upon the cross.
–Saint Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)
