“It is not particularly difficult to find thousands who will spend two or three hours a day in exercising, but if you ask them to bend their knees to God in five minutes of prayer, they protest that it is too long.” Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
Anytime, anywhere, about anything….God is always available, but he respects our freedom and he will never force his way into our day and into our lives.
God bless,

“And of what should we be afraid? Our captain on this battlefield is Christ Jesus. We have discovered what we have to do. Christ has bound our enemies for us and weakened them that they cannot overcome us unless we so choose to let them. So we must fight courageously and mark ourselves with the sign of the most Holy Cross.” – St. Catherine of Sienna

“As love grows in you, beauty grows, too. For love is the beauty of the soul.” St. Augustine
An oyster that has never been wounded will never produce pearls; so spiritual beauty shines out move vividly when we joyfully embrace the daily crosses that Jesus allows in our lives. Don’t waste suffering…offer it up and don’t forget the incredible witness that you give to those around you!

“Love, to be real, must empty us of self.” St. Teresa of Calcutta
Sometimes, it can be really hard to love and be nice to someone, especially when they take it for granted or show little respect or appreciation. It’s easy to love our friends, but we know that Christ also wants us to go where it can be tough as well!

“Where there is no love, pour love in, and you will draw out love.” St. John of the Cross
Some people can just be difficult to love. Yet, they give us an incredible opportunity to love in a pure and disinterested way, with no advantage or perk coming our way.

“It’s much better to do good in a way that nobody knows anything about it.” Leo Tolstoy
Sometimes the simple gift of “presence” when you don’t feel like it can go a long way!

“If you are suffering from a bad man’s injustice, forgive him, lest there be two bad men.” — St. Augustine
You can get upset, you can let it ruin your day or even your week, you can plot out revenge, you can spread bad rumors about the person who hurt you…or like, Christ, you can say, “Forgive them, Father, they know not what they do”, pray for them and ask God to help you forgive them from the heart. This is the pathway to peace and holiness…
