Quote for the Day

[Shin]

'The Lord has given me to know that, in order to apply to anything intelligibly and holily, I must first go and prostrate at His feet, and there my work will be blessed. I have then firmly resolved never to draw up any plan with out having first thought it over before Our Lord and submitted it to Him for approval.'

Bl. Peter Julian Eymard

[Shin]

'I must work with all my strength to destroy self-love and self-interest.'

St. Bernadette Soubirous

[Shin]

'The blessedness of seeing God is justly promised to the pure of heart. For the eye that is unclean would not be able to see the brightness of the true light, and what would be happiness to clear minds would be a torment to those that are defiled. Therefore, let the mists of worldly vanities be dispelled, and the inner eye be cleansed of all the filth of wickedness, so that the soul's gaze may feast serenely upon the great vision of God.'

Pope St. Leo the Great

[Shin]

'I beg of Him with all my heart to make you ever faithful to what He asks of you, ready to sacrifice to Him all that costs you the most, according as He makes His Will known to you, for there is no middle course; He will have all or nothing.'

St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
