Life is a promise; fulfill it.
It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start.
Saints are only sinners who keep trying.
Souls of prayer are souls of great silence
Bring love into your home, for this is where our love for each other must start
Go out into the world today and love the people you meet. Let your presence light new light in the hearts of people.
God does not demand that I be succesful. God demands that I be faithful. When facing God, results are not important. Faithfulness is what is important.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
If you think well of others, you will also speak well of others and to others. From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. If your heart is full of love, you will speak of love.
Holy Angels, our advocates, our brothers, our counselors, our defenders, our enlighteners, our friends, our guides, our helpers, our intercessors - Pray for us.
I'm a little pencil in the hand of a writing God, who is sending a love letter to the world.
Perfect prayer does not consist in many words, but in the fervor of the desire which raises the heart to Jesus.
There is no great difference in the reality of one country or another, because it is always people you meet everywhere. They may look different or be dressed differently, or may have a different education or position. But they are all the same. They are all people to be loved. They are all hungry for love.
Prayer is putting oneself in the hands of God
