“Accustom yourself continually to make many acts of love, for they enkindle and melt the soul.” St. Teresa of Avila
Small acts of love
Humble
“Humility is not self-contempt but the truth about ourselves coupled with a reverence for others; it is self-surrender to the highest goal.” Venerable Bishop Sheen
Humility
Self mastery
“Home life is the God-appointed training ground of human character, for from the home life of the child springs the maturity of manhood, either for good or for evil.” Venerable Bishop Sheen
Forming character in your kids
God’s paternal love
“The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists.” Charles Dickens
God’s paternal love is unconditional and relentless…open the door of your heart and let Him love you!
God’s unconditional love…for you!
Keep your heart open!
“Although the happiness and delight of my life lie buried there too, I have not made a coffin of my heart, and sealed it up for ever on my best affections. Deep affliction has only made them stronger; it ought, I think, for it should refine our nature.” Charles Dickens
Sometimes our hearts can be broken when we lose a loved one or simply break off a friendship…allow Christ to keep your heart open with his touch of love. He still wants to love so many through you!
