“If you believe what you like in the gospel, and reject what you don’t like, it is not the gospel you believe but yourself.”

“Since it is likely that, being men, they would sin every day, St. Paul consoles his hearers by saying ‘renew yourselves’ from day to day. This is what we do with houses: we keep constantly repairing them as they wear old. You should do the same thing to yourself. Have you sinned today? Have you made your soul old? Do not despair, do not despond, but renew your soul by repentance, and tears, and Confession, and by doing good things. And never cease doing this.” St. John Chrysostom
“Each of us is the one who must live in such a way as to make it evident that she knows she is loved. A woman who knows she is loved can do anything. This is a woman’s strength. If a woman feels unloved, she is weak. She still can do, but not in the way that she can if she knows she is loved. Nothing is too hard to a woman who knows she is loved. Well…we are! We are loved deeply by God. We must deepen our knowledge of that.” Mother Mary Francis
“The Holy Scriptures were not given to us that we should enclose them in books, but that we should engrave them upon our hearts.” St. John Chrysostom
“God will find you,” said the priest quietly. “Stay calm and do not flee from Him who has been seeking you before you even existed in your mother’s womb.”

“Prayer is the place of refuge for every worry, a foundation for cheerfulness, a source of constant happiness, a protection against sadness.” St. John Chrysostom
“Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it.” ― St. Mother Teresa
