If we want to build the kingdom of God, we must stop being self-centered and start becoming Christ-centered.
–Father Raniero Cantalamessa (1936-

Know Jesus with the mind – the study of the Catechism: know Jesus with the heart – in prayer, in dialogue with Him. This helps us a good bit, but it is not enough. There is a third way to know Jesus: it is by following Him. Go with Him, walk with Him.
–Pope Francis (1937-
We must always walk in the presence of the Lord, in the light of the Lord, always trying to live in an irreprehensible way.
–Pope Francis (1936-
That person does not have Christ who only has Him on his tongue. Neither does that person have Christ who has Him only on paper. Neither does that person have Christ who has Him only on the wall. Neither does that person have Christ that has Him in the museum of the past. That person, in truth, has Christ who has Him in his heart. For Christ is Love and the throne of love is the heart.
–Saint Nicholas Velimirovic (1880-1956)
God is in love with us and keeps using you and me to light the light of love in the world. Let His light of truth be in your life so that God can continue loving the world through you and me. Put your heart into being a bright light.
–Saint Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)
Hence many people choose other ways, following their own reason or opinions or appetites; they seek some other paths, and even without seeking them, find many that lead to hell and are so smooth and pleasant that they forget what a terrible reception they will meet with in the end. They only think of the pleasant way and fresh air and companions and that, whichever road they take, they are sure of society.
–Francisco de Osuna (1497-1541)
