Follow the light of faith…
It is absolutely necessary, both for our advancement and the salvation of others, to follow always and in all things the beautiful light of faith.
— Saint Vincent de Paul (1581-1660)
Sufferings will be…
Sufferings will be sweet and pleasant to us while we are with Him; and the greatest pleasures will be, without Him, a cruel punishment to us.
–Brother Lawrence (1614-1691)
Your God is…
Your God is ever beside you — indeed, He is even within you.
–Saint Alphonsus Liguori (1696-1787)
To hear the voice of God…
I sought to hear the voice of God And climbed the topmost steeple, But God declared: “Go down again – I dwell among the people.”
–Blessed John Henry Newman (1801-1890)
Give yourself to God…
You propose to give up everything to God; be sure, then, to include yourself among the things to be given up.
–Saint Benedict (480-547)
Look on Jesus…
Look then on Jesus, the author and preserver of faith: in complete sinlessness He suffered, and at the hands of those who were His own, and was numbered among the wicked. As you drink the cup of the Lord Jesus (how glorious it is!), give thanks to the Lord, the giver of all blessings.
–Saint Raymond of Penyafort (c. 1175-1275)
