the strength to fight inner struggles."- Bl Pier Giorgio

"Ask Jesus to make you a
saint.
After all, only He can do
that.
Go to confession regularly
and to Communion as often as you can."
St. Dominic Savio
"This world is filled with
many vulgar and dishonorable things that will claw and tear at your Christian
purity if you allow them to. Don't let them! Seek instead the things of God.
He will purify you and free you from
your slavery to profane and inconsequential things." - Patrick
Madrid
“There is no shame so great that
God’s mercy cannot shine forth from its midst. … Jesus is not afraid to go to
the core of our shame to heal us. Sins
and secrets do not scare Him. The
serpent causes shame and hiding; Jesus invites us to
mercy and communion.” ~ Fr Richard
Veras
"I think one of the central elements of my own discipleship so far has
been my pastors’ focus on the Cross. The way of Jesus
is the way of the cross. It is terribly painful to give up one’s sins and
self-will, to allow one’s old self to be crucified along with
Jesus … and I have been
very grateful to my pastors who acknowledge how hard and painful it can be along
this Christian journey. But the way of the cross is also the way of life and
peace.” - Dr Holly Ordway (excerpt - Former Atheist: Christianity Really
Does Make Sense)
