Mary is blessed…
Mary is more blessed because she embraces faith in Christ than because she conceives the flesh of Christ.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
God keeps us…
God wants us to know that he keeps us safe through good and ill… We shall see God face to face, simply and holding.
–Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
All things well…
And so our good Lord answered to all the questions and doubts which I could raise, saying most comfortingly: “I may make all things well, and I shall make all things well, and I will make all things well; and you will see yourself that every kind of thing will be well.”
–Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
God’s wise providence…
And I saw that truly nothing happens by accident or luck, but everything by God’s wise providence. If it seems to be accident or luck from our point of view, our blindness and lack of foreknowledge is the cause; for matters that have been in God’s foreseeing wisdom since before time began befall us suddenly, all unawares; and so in our blindness and ignorance we say that this is accident or luck, but to our Lord God it is not so.
–Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
In prayer…
In prayer, more is accomplished by listening than by talking. Let us leave to God the decisions as to what shall be said.
–Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
Everything comes from love…
Everything comes from love, all is ordained for the salvation of man, God does nothing without this goal in mind.
–Saint Catherine of Siena (1347-1380)
