16.01.2022 "For me, prayer is a surge of the heart; it is a simple look turned toward heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love, embracing both trial and joy." St. Therese of Lisieux

15.01.2022 "As we have seen, there is sometimes a big difference between what God is actually asking of us, and what we imagine he is asking. We won’t have the grace to do what God is not asking of us. But for what he is asking, he has promised us his grace: God grants what he commands. When God inspires us to do something (if it really is God who is the source of the inspiration), at the same time he supplies the ability to do it, even if it is beyond our capacity or scares us at the start. Every motion that comes from God brings both the light to understand what God intends, and the strength to accomplish it: light that illuminates the mind, and strength that gives power to the will." Fr. Jacques Philippe, p. 21 Taken from "In the School of the Holy Spirit"

09.01.2022 "Prayer is greatly aided by fasting and watching and every kind of bodily chastisement. In this regard each of you must do what you can. Thus, the weaker will not hold back the stronger, and the stronger will not press the weaker. You owe your conscience to God. But to no one else do you owe anything more except that you love one another." St. Augustine, Taken from Augustine Day by Day p143

07.01.2022 "Consider God's charity. Where else have we ever seen someone who has been offended voluntarily paying out his life for those who have offended him?" St. Catherine of Siena

01.01.2022 "The name of Jesus, pronounced with reverence and affection, has a kind of power to soften the heart." St. Philip Neri
