Cheerfulness wins heart…
Nothing wins hearts like cheerfulness.
–Saint Dwynwen (d. 460)
Many the gifts of the Holy Spirit…
To seek to bring all men to salvation by one road is very dangerous. He who does so fails to understand how many and various are the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
— Saint Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556)
If we were true Christians…
There would be no need for sermons if our lives were shining; there would be no need for words if we bore witness with our deeds; there would be no more pagans if we were true Christians.
–Saint John Chrysostom (347-407)
Help the hearts of all…
It is not enough that I should serve God by myself: I must help the hearts of all to love him and the tongues of all to praise him.
–Saint Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556)
Joy is the net…
Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.
–Saint Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)
Be a living gospel…
We should be a living Gospel. The people who live distant from Christ, especially unbelievers, should know the Gospel not through books or words, but in view of our lives.
–Blessed Charles de Foucauld (1858-1916)
