— St. Alphonsus Liguori
Daily Scripture Verse
“I, then, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to live in a manner worthy of the call you have received, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another through love, striving to preserve the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”
Ephesians 4:1-3
Daily Meditation
“What are we to say of the charity and compassion of the Blessed Virgin, who for nine months bore, and still carries in her heart, the only son of God, the uncreated Charity which knows no bounds? If, as often as we approach a fire, we are affected by its heat, have we not reason to believe that whoever approaches the heart of the Mother of Mercies, ever burning with her most ardent Charity, must be profoundly affected in proportion to the frequency of his petitions, the humility and confidence in his heart?
— Dom Lorenzo Scupoli
Daily Catholic Wisdom
You see, your heart is a vast and quite frightening thing. It was designed for God, and so, like a vertiginous and beautifully carved stone cathedral, it cries out to be filled with a voice, with love; it aches to be animated by a Spirit large enough.

A Prayer from Notre Dame University
Rev. Gabriel J. Griggs, C.S.C.
Lord, many of your teachings and acts of love are hidden from us. Nevertheless, we believe that with the aid of the Holy Spirit, our eyes and hearts will be open to the truth of your person and your salvific mission. Send your Spirit upon us that we may see with the eyes of children and thereby see your kingdom as it takes hold here on earth. Enkindle in our hearts a desire for you and your kingdom, and we shall be made new. Amen.
