Our Lady is…
It is Our Lady who is working in me in these days, trying to awaken in me, bring out new worlds to light, draw me into her Christ Who is the center of all. And she does this when I go to her.
–Thomas Merton (1915-1968)
Make space for silence…
Even amid the “busy-ness” and the stress of our daily lives, we need to make space for silence, because it is in silence that we find God, and in silence that we discover our true self. And in discovering our true self, we discover the particular vocation which God has given us for the building up of his Church and the redemption of our world.
–Pope Benedict XVI (1927-
Surrender all…
Jesus gives all to those who surrender all.
–Saint Bernadette (1844-1879)
Death is certain…
Nothing is more certain than death, nothing more uncertain than its hour.
–Saint Anselm (1033-1109)
Devotion to Mary…
No matter how sinful one may have been, if he has devotion to Mary, it is impossible that he be lost.
–Saint Hilary of Poitiers (c. 300-368)
The Holy Virgin…
I have been amazed that some are utterly in doubt as to whether or not the Holy Virgin is able to be called the Mother of God. For if our Lord Jesus Christ is God, how should the Holy Virgin who bore him not be the Mother of God?
–Saint Cyril of Alexandria (378-444)
