Impossible for us…
What is impossible for us is possible for Him; take Him at His word.
–Venerable Edel Quinn (1907-1944)
From the Spirit comes…
From the Spirit comes foreknowledge of the future, understanding of the mysteries of faith, insight into the hidden meaning of Scripture, and other special gifts. Through the Spirit we become citizens of heaven, we enter into eternal happiness, and abide in God. Through the Spirit we acquire a likeness to God; indeed, we attain what is beyond our most sublime aspirations – we become God.
–Saint Basil the Great (330-379)
The Spirit is…
The Spirit is the source of holiness, a spiritual light, and he offers his own light to every mind to help it in its search for truth. By nature the Spirit is beyond the reach of our mind, but we can know him by his goodness. The power of the Spirit fills the whole universe, but he gives himself only to those who are worthy, acting in each according to the measure of his faith.
–Saint Basil the Great (330-379)
Hope in mercy and grace….
In what can I hope, then, or in whom ought I trust, save only in the great mercy of God and the hope of heavenly grace?
–Thomas à Kempis (1380-1471)
Great is the mercy of God…
If we stop to think how great is the mercy of God, we would never cease doing all the good we can, for while we on our side, for love of him, give to the poor what he gives us he promises us a hundred fold in Heavenly glory.
–Saint John of God (1495-1550)
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)
