  • He watched over me before I knew him, and before I learned sense or even distinguished between good and evil, and he protected me, and consoled me as a father would his son.
    -St. Patrick
    I hold it true, whate'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.
    (In Memoriam A. H. H., 27.13-17 Alfred, Lord Tennyson)

  • What steps will you take to reach the high level to which God is calling you? The means of holiness and salvation are known to everybody, since they are found in the Gospel; the masters of the spiritual life have explained them; the Saints have practiced them...These means are: sincere humility, unceasing prayer, complete self-denial, abandonment to Divine Providence, and obedience to the will of God.
    St. Louis de Montfort

    I hold it true, whate'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.

  • Be careful to be gentle, lest in removing the rust, you break the whole instrument.

  • Bodily and spiritual affliction are the surest sign of Divine predilection. Gratitude for suffering is a precious Jєωel for our heavenly crown... Man should always firmly believe that God sends just that trial which is most beneficial for him.
    -St. Gertrude

    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.

    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.

    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost

  • It is not without risk that one climbs a defective ladder. And so with honour, praise and precedence which are all dangerous for humility.

    Let it be what God has planned, His new Eden where You reign.
