Daily Thought from The Saints
“I am sent not only to love God but to make Him loved. It is not enough for me to love God, if my neighbor does not love him.”
— St. Vincent De Paul
Daily Scripture Verse
“Therefore, we are not discouraged; rather, although our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this momentary light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to what is seen but to what is unseen; for what is seen is transitory, but what is unseen is eternal.”
2 Corinthians 4:16-18
Daily Meditation
“Even though we know that God’s will and Commandments apply to everyone, we do not always have the strength to fulfill them. Now, every time we respond faithfully to a motion of the spirit, out of desire to be docile to what God expects of us, even if it’s something almost insignificant of itself, that faithfulness draws grace and strength down on us. That strength can then be applied to other areas and may make us capable of one day practicing the commandments that up until then we had not been capable of fulfilling entirely.”
— Fr. Jacques Philippe
Daily Catholic Wisdom
We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved.
—St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta
A Prayer from Notre Dame University
Rev. John Pearson, C.S.C.
Lord Jesus, we know that your rejection by your neighbors at Nazareth is the first whisper leading to the Cross. Help us to see you not just where we expect to, but to see you revealed in the most unlikely places and in the most unlikely people. We make this prayer in your name. Amen.
