Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
The most important medicine is tender love and care.
Life is a game, play it.
You can and you must expect suffering.
Words lead to deeds, they prepare the soul, make it ready, and move it to tenderness.
In loving one another through our works we bring an increase of grace and a growth in divine love.
What is called generosity is usually only the vanity of giving; we enjoy the vanity more. If you can't feed a hundred people, then just feed one.
Give a glass of water, you give it to me. Receive a little child, you receive me.
I heard the call to give up all and follow Christ into the slums to serve Him among the poorest of the poor. It was an order.
I think it is very good when people suffer. To me that is like the kiss of Jesus.
If in coming face to face with God we accept Him in our lives, then we are converting. We become a better Hindu, a better Muslim, a better Catholic, a better whatever we are. ... What God is in your mind you must accept.
I have a primary responsibility to myself; to make myself into the best person I can possibly be. Then and only then, will I have something worthwhile to share.- I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.
I fear just one thing : Money! Greed was what motivated Judas to sell Jesus
Let us remain as empty as possible so that God can fill us up.
