Daily Thought From The Saints

"Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in Thee.”

— St. Augustine

Daily Scripture Verse

“Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen.”

Hebrews 11:1

Daily Meditation

"The invitation to lift up our hearts at the most important part of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is an invitation by Jesus through The Voice of the priest to give our hearts to the Father, as he gave his life for us. We prepare to make our hearts and lives a total self-gift to the Father as Jesus made himself a total gift to the Father for us on the cross.”

— Archbishop Samuel J. Aquila

Daily Catholic Wisdom

To love God as He ought to be loved, we must be detached from all temporal love. We must love nothing but Him, or if we love anything else, we must love it, only for His sake.

—St. Peter Claver, “Slave of the Slaves”

A Prayer from Notre Dame University

Rev. M. Joseph Pederson, C.S.C.

Jesus, we know that you are always with us, leading and guiding us through your Spirit. At the same time, we long for that time when we will experience the fullness of your presence in the wedding feast of heaven. We ask that you send your Spirit to strengthen us through the difficulties of this life so that we may be prepared even now for life eternal. We ask this in your most holy name. Amen.
