“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature.” Anne Frank
We all have so many local and state parks…go for a walk or run, stop and contemplate God’s amazing garden and let your heart and soul rest awhile!
God bless,

“Patience is power. Patience is not an absence of action; rather it is “timing”, it waits on the right time to act, for the right principles, in the right way.” Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
Patient endurance is such a key virtue, and life gives us such a plethora of opportunities to practice it! Sometimes just waiting out a tough situation with kindness can be heroic!

“Far better it is for you to say: “I am a sinner,” than to say: “I have no need of religion.” The empty can be filled, but the self-intoxicated have no room for God.” Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
Sinking without God or peacefully floating with Him…it’s your choice. Is prayer on your daily schedule?
God bless,

“Dream that the more you struggle, the more you prove the love that you bear your God, and the more you will rejoice one day with your Beloved, in a happiness and rapture that can never end.” St. Teresa of Jesus
In the very real and very personal “marathon” of our lives, there are no short-cuts to heaven. As long as you keep your eyes on Jesus and focus on loving him more and more each day, you will see him at the finish line with a big smile and open arms, waiting to receive you into his eternal embrace.
God bless,

“You pray, you love — that is the happiness of man upon the earth. ” St. John Vianney
Such a simple path to happiness, but so few who walk in the footsteps of Jesus. Making time to pray and striving to love in a selfless way, out of love for God…it works!
God bless,

“Go to the Madonna. Love her! Always say the Rosary. Say it well. Say it as often as you can! Be souls of prayer. Never tire of praying, it is what is essential. Prayer shakes the Heart of God, it obtains necessary graces!” -St. Padre Pio

“Life with Christ is a wonderful adventure.” Saint John Paul II
There will be plenty of peaks and plenty of valleys if you allow yourself to be led by God’s loving plan over your life. But you will have great peace knowing that Christ will be there with you, every step of the way!
God bless,

“The saints did not all begin well, but they ended well.” St. John Vianney
God focuses more on the “back nine” of our lives, so do not lose hope. The important thing is to get back up again and again and to finish strong!

“You will never be happy if your happiness depends on getting solely what you want. Change the focus. Get a new center. Will what God wills, and your joy no man shall take from you.” Venerable Fulton Sheen
