God is always with you…
Always have the fear of God in your heart, and remember that God is always with you, everywhere, whether you are walking or sitting.
–Saint Gennadius of Constantinople (Fifth Century)
The greatest renewal…
IF
all the sleeping folks will wake up, and
all the lukewarm folks will fire up, and
all the disgruntled folks will sweeten up, and
all the discouraged folks will cheer up, and
all the depressed folks will look up, and
all the estranged folks will make up, and
all the gossiping folks will shut up, and
all the dry bones will shake up, and
all the true soldiers will stand up, and
all the church members will pray up, and
if the Savior of all will be lifted up,
then we can have the greatest renewal
this world has ever known.
–Richard Cushing (1895-1970)
God is infinite and…
God is infinite and without end, but the soul’s desire is an abyss which cannot be filled except by a Good which is infinite; and the more ardently the soul longeth after God, the more she wills to long after him; for God is a Good without drawback, and a well of living water without bottom, and the soul is made in the image of God, and therefore it is created to know and love God.
–Johannes Tauler (c. 1300-1361)
God is truly worshipped…
God is truly worshiped when someone actually gives full attention to God with feelings of awe, love, devotion, respect, and wonder. Such a moment is genuine worship.
–Guigo I (c. 1083-1136)
Govern your passions…
Those who govern their passions are masters of the world. We must either command them or be enslaved by them.
–Saint Dominic (1170-1221)
We can believe…
We can believe what we choose. We are answerable for what we choose to believe.
–Blessed John Henry Newman (1801-1890)
