Show gratitude to God…
History converges on Christ…
All things, all history converges in Christ. A man of sorrow and hope, he knows us and loves us. As our friend he stays by us throughout our lives; at the end of time he will come to be our judge; but we also know that he will be the complete fulfilment of our lives and our great happiness for all eternity. I can never cease to speak of Christ for he is our truth and our light; he is the way, the truth and the life. He is our bread, our source of living water who allays our hunger and satisfies our thirst. He is our shepherd, our leader, our ideal, our comforter and our brother.
–Blessed Paul VI (1897-1978)
The source of all grace…
The source of all grace is God’s love for us, and he has revealed this not just in words but also in deeds.
–Saint Josemaría Escrivá (1902-1975)
Holiness grows where…
Holiness grows so fast where there is kindness. The world is lost for want of sweetness and kindness. Do not forget we need each other.
–Saint Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)
