Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
If we fly from God, it is because His Goodness is our reproach and because union with Him demands disunion and divorce from evil. -
Saint Rose of Lima (1586-1617)
If only mortals would learn how great it is to possess divine grace, how beautiful, how noble, how precious. How many riches it hides within itself, how many joys and delights! No one would complain about his cross or about troubles that may happen to him, if he would come to know the scales on which they are weighed when they are distributed to men. -
Saint Alberto Hurtado Cruchaga (1901-1952)
Christ has made himself our neighbor or rather; our neighbor is Christ who presents himself under one or another form: a patient among the sick, a needy man among beggars, a prisoner among the incarcerated, the heartbroken among those who weep. If we do not see him it is because our faith is lukewarm. To separate our neighbor from Christ is to separate light from light. He who loves Christ is obliged to love his neighbor with all his heart, with all is mind, with all his strength.
Pope Saint Pius X (1835-1914)
My hope is in Christ, who strengthens the weakest by His Divine help. I can do all in Him who strengthens me. His Power is infinite, and if I lean on him, it will be mine. His Wisdom is infinite, and if I look to Him for counsel, I shall not be deceived. His Goodness is infinite, and if my trust is stayed in Him, I shall not be abandoned.
