“The Holy Spirit is given to us so we can become participants in God’s compassion and so reach out to all people at all times with God’s heart.”

But say to God: Let Thy will be done! For He does everything for our benefit. -St. Gennadius of Constantinople
(via stkatherine)
Once in a while we meet a gentle person. Gentleness is a virtue hard to find in a society that admires toughness and roughness. We are encouraged to get things done and to get them done fast, even when people get hurt in the process. Success, accomplishment, and productivity count. But the cost is high. There is no place for gentleness in such a milieu. Gentle is the one who does ‘not break the crushed reed, or snuff the faltering wick.’ Gentle is the one who is attentive to the strengths and weaknesses of the other and enjoys being together more than accomplishing something. A gentle person treads lightly, listens carefully, looks tenderly, and touches with reverence. A gentle person knows that true growth requires nurture, not force. Let’s dress ourselves with gentleness. In our tough and often unbending world our gentleness can be a vivid reminder of the presence of God among us.

Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One Who is leading.
Oswald Chambers, My Utmost For His Highest (via this-abounding-grace)
Our lives should be a living demonstration that we know a God who forgives.
Brother Andrew (via beereans)
“It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.”
J.K. Rowling (via notoriousbohemian)
Stand your ground like an anvil under the hammer. The mark of a true champion is to stand up to punishment and still come out victorious. It is our duty, particularly when the cause is God’s, to accept trials of all kinds, if we ourselves are to be accepted by him.
St Ignatius of Antioch (via twocrowns)
G.K. Chesterton
Waking up alive and well is already a miracle. A blessing we owe to Him.
(via beereans)
When the Church loses its missionary zeal, she goes from being Mother to being a babysitter
Pope Francis (via twocrowns)
Our Lord sends the crosses; we do not have to invent them.
St. Padre Pio (via twocrowns)
To change the world we must be good to those who cannot repay us.
Pope Francis (via existential-saint)
There is no one so enlightened as he who can see and recognize his own sins and the virtues of others. -St. Nicholai of Zica

It is a fact, brothers and sisters, that the path of the saints in this life is one full of troubles.
St. Athanasius (via stkatherine)
God wants us all to see one another as brothers and to live as such, forming a great human family that is harmonious in its diversity.
Pope Francis (via kvtes)
If you’re using the Bible as a weapon against others instead of a mirror to truly examine yourself first, then you have nothing to do with God. You’re in it for yourself.
