Don’t worry about…
Don’t worry about tomorrow because the very same Heavenly Father who takes care of you today will have the same thought tomorrow and always.
–Saint Pio (1887-1968)
Be faithful to God…
Always be faithful to God in keeping the promises made to Him and do not bother about the ridicule of the foolish. Know that the saints were always sneered at by the world and worldlings; and they have trampled them under foot and triumphed over the world and its maxims.
–Saint Pio (1887-1968)
A vessel God built…
A human being is a vessel that God has built for himself and filled with his inspiration so that his works are perfected in it.
–Saint Hildegarde of Bingen (1098-1179)
Jesus Christ alone…
It is Jesus Christ alone Whom we have followed everywhere, and it is He alone Whom we will follow always. Let us relight our lamps before our heavenly Spouse. Let us look only to Him, think only of Him, desire only Him, live only to give to Him.
–Saint Joan Antide-Thouret (1765-1826)
We are to love God…
We are to love God, then, because he loved us first. [1 Jn 4:19] The Passion on Calvary is a supreme declaration of love. It was to redeem us that you suffered so much, O Jesus. The least of your acts has infinite worth, since it is one of God’s acts, and would have been more than ample enough to redeem a thousand worlds, to redeem all possible worlds. But you suffered so much because you wanted to make us holy, to bear our burdens and to draw us into loving you freely. Loving is the most powerful way to attract love, loving is the most powerful way to make oneself loved. It is impossible for us to love him and not imitate him, to love him and not want to be the way he was, do what he did, suffer and die in torment because he suffered and died in torment. It is impossible to love him and want to be crowned with roses when he was crowned with thorns. We must love him as he has loved us.
–Blessed Charles de Foucauld (1858-1916)
True virtue has…
True virtue has no limits, but goes on and on, and especially holy charity, which is the virtue of virtues, and which having a definite object, would become infinite if it could meet with a heart capable of infinity. –Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
