Walk in the presence…
We must always walk in the presence of the Lord, in the light of the Lord, always trying to live in an irreprehensible way.
–Pope Francis (1936-
Life is a journey…
Life is a journey, along different roads, different paths, which leave their mark on us. We know in faith that Jesus seeks us out. He wants to heal our wounds, to soothe our feet which hurt from traveling alone, to wash each of us clean of the dust from our journey.
–Pope Francis (1936-
Christ in his heart…
That person does not have Christ who only has Him on his tongue. Neither does that person have Christ who has Him only on paper. Neither does that person have Christ who has Him only on the wall. Neither does that person have Christ that has Him in the museum of the past. That person, in truth, has Christ who has Him in his heart. For Christ is Love and the throne of love is the heart.
–Saint Nicholas Velimirovic (1880-1956)
The longer from communion…
The longer you stay away from Communion, the more your soul will be weak, and in the end you will become dangerously indifferent.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
Be eager to go to Mass…
Be eager to go to Mass on weekdays also, even if it costs a sacrifice. Our Lord will reward you with His Blessings and make you succeed in your undertakings.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
The road of sanctity…
The road of sanctity is not a road of honors, but rather a road of misunderstandings and humiliations. When you encounter difficulties, don’t discourage yourself too quickly. Run without delay to the tabernacle to sigh with Jesus, telling him: ‘Jesus, I have only the thought of abandoning you. Deign to change my will. I’m very sad, and all I can do is ask you to accept my sadness. I can’t find peace… I can’t stop myself from crying… accept my tears with gentleness.’
–Francois-Xavier Nguyen Van Thuân (1928-2002)
