His glance follows us every moment...

Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. 

Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the 

eyes of him to whom we must give account. - Hebrews 4:13

“Make use of devotion to the Blessed Sacrament

as a means of persevering in the practice of virtue.

Let us go to Him toward evening

and tell Him about our shortcomings,

let us ask Him for help and forgiveness.

Our Lord loves us, constantly, and His glance

follows us every moment of the day.”

Rafael Cardinal Merry del Val

Servant of God

"... when the door starts closing a bit because 

of our weakness and sins, confession 

reopens it." - Pope Francis

 "Put aside your hatred and animosity. Take pains to 

refrain from sharp words.  If they escape your lips, do not 

be ashamed to let your lips produce the remedy,

 since they have caused the wounds. Pardon one another 

so that later on you will not remember the injury. 

The recollection of an injury is itself wrong.  

It adds to our anger, nurtures our sin and hates what 

is good. It is a rusty arrow and poison for the soul. 

It puts all virtue to flight."- St. Francis of Paola
