We Should Only Fear Offending God

We should only fear offending God. Other than that, fear is not of God and we should reject it in the power of the Holy Spirit.

The World Is Rotten Because Of Silence

Enough of exhortations to be silent! Cry out with a hundred thousand tongues; the world is rotten because of silence. - Saint Catherine of Siena

God Wills The Lofty Mountains of Our Lives be Made Low

God wills the lofty mountains of our lives be made low. These mountains take the forms of pride, fear, resentment, and anxiety. They prevent us from seeing the light of Christ inviting us to taste of His goodness. Christ wants to level our mountains, and fill our empty valleys with His river of Love. We should simply stop paying attention to our failings and problems and look at Christ as our solution - Brother Cassian Sama, O.P.

In My Time of Trial I Called Out to The Lord: He Listened, And Led me to Freedom

In my time of trial I called out to the Lord:
he listened, and led me to freedom.

The Lord is with me,
I will fear nothing that man can do.

The Lord, my help, is with me,
and I shall look down upon my enemies.

It is good to seek shelter in the Lord,
better than to trust in men.

It is good to seek shelter in the Lord,
better than to trust in the leaders of men.

- Psalm 117

Patience Obtains All

Let nothing trouble you. Let nothing frighten you. Everything passes. God never changes. Patience obtains all. Whoever has God, wants for nothing. God alone is enough. - Saint Theresa of Avila (Poesías 30)
