“The world will be saved by beauty.” Fyodor Dostoevsky
There is a special “glow”, radiant beauty, and inner strength in the face of a Saint…we need more holiness in this world!!

“You are in every line I have ever read.” Charles Dickens

“A word in earnest is as good as a speech.” Charles Dickens
Several years ago, myself and a father-daughter group of missionaries, had the privilege of helping hurricane victims from LaPlace, Louisiana move back into their flood ravaged homes. One gentleman from the local Catholic Church came up to me, looked me straight in the eyes and while shaking my hand said, “Thank you for helping, Fr. Michael” This simple expression was said with so much sincerity and it came from the heart…it left a deep impression on me and the group!

“To live without Hope is to cease to live.” Fyodor Dostoevsky
Look for the sunshine in the clouds, look for the ray of light in the darkness…look for Jesus when you suffer and you will always find him very close!

“Subdue your appetites, my dears, and you’ve conquered human nature.” Charles Dickens
Taking a little more of the food you don’t like, a little less of what you like…small things, but they go a long way in forming self-mastery in other areas as well.

“Dear friends, if you learn to discover Jesus in the Eucharist, you will also know how to discover Him in your brothers and sisters, particularly the very poor.” St. John Paul II
It is so much easier to see the face of Jesus in the poor after spending time with him in the Blessed Sacrament!

“Today Christ is asking each of you the same question: do you love Me? He is not asking you whether you know how to speak to crowds, whether you can direct an organization or manage an estate. He is asking you to love Him. All the rest will ensue.” St. John Paul II
Jesus asked Peter 3 times, “Do you love me?” before re-affirming his mission as our first pope. He did not ask if he was a good administrator, if he spoke multiple languages, if he had a plethora of human qualities…Jesus, first and foremost, needs our love and he will do the rest!

“The way Jesus shows you is not easy. Rather, it is like a path winding up a mountain. Do not lose heart! The steeper the road, the faster it rises towards ever wider horizons.” St. John Paul II
Sometimes the pathway of our life can be rugged, but don’t forget that this is often a shortcut provided by God for us to reach the top faster!
