“Beauty grows in you to the extent that love grows, because charity itself is the soul’s beauty.” St. Augustine
Physical beauty may attract others (for awhile), but holiness inspires and truly moves the hearts of those with whom they come into contact.

“What grace is meant to do is to help good people, not to escape their sufferings, but to bear them with a stout heart, with a fortitude that finds its strength in faith.” St. Augustine
Everyone suffers, without exception, but Catholics who are deeply united to Christ through prayer and the Sacraments, simply do it with a little more joy and little more glow!
God bless,

“Yours are the eyes through which Christ looks compassion into the world. Yours are the feet with which Christ walks to do good. Yours are the hands with which Christ blesses the world.” St. Teresa of Avila
Especially when you are in front of a difficult person…that’s when Jesus’ love really wants to kick in!!
God bless,

“You pay God a compliment by asking great things of Him.” St. Teresa of Avila
Entrust your apostolic endeavors, your efforts to evangelize, your striving for a particular virtue to prayer, especially when in adoration in front of Our Lord. He really wants to help, but he needs to see the strength of our desire and our trust in Him.
God bless,

“You cannot love a thing without wanting to fight for it.” G.K. Chesterton
Empty pews, heroin overdoses, atheism and hedonism, over sexed culture…Christ’s heart is hurting with all of this confusion and lack of love in the world…are you fighting to make a dent in the culture for him?
God bless,

“To have courage for whatever comes in life — everything lies in that.” St. Teresa of Avila
Sometimes, God asks us to leave our comfort zone as a necessary means for personal growth…don’t be afraid to jump, when he asks you to jump!
