“I plead with you! Never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire, and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.” St. John Paul II
Discouragement is one of the greatest temptations of the devil. Persevering in good is not easy, so we need to renew our love for Christ first thing each day, telling him that the entire day will be dedicated to him and lived for him. If Christ is at the center, nothing is too hard!

“Peace is better than fortune.” St. Francis de Sales
Peace is a powerful perk God gives to those selfless souls who pray a lot, and focus more on serving others and doing his most holy will.

“If you can share your anxiety with your spiritual director or some trusted friend, calm will be restored more quickly.” St. Francis de Sales
When something begins to agitate my soul and try to take away my peace, I am one text or phone call away to my spiritual director in clearing the air and getting back on track. Often, just the mere fact of talking about a troubling issue with your spiritual director, takes the issue “out of play.”

“Those who can preserve gentleness amid pains, and peace amid the worry and multitude of affairs, is almost perfect.” St. Francis de Sales
When I think of great souls who are pillars of stability and peace in the midst of many personal storms, I immediately see a deep love for Jesus Christ, and a regular and constant prayer life supporting them. Without God, there can simply be no peace in the storm.
