Nothing is far from God - Saint Monica. St. Monica, you were troubled by many sorrows and worries, but you never despaired nor lost hope and trust in God. You patiently and persistently prayed for the conversion of Patricius, your husband, and Augustine your son, and God answered your prayers. Pray for me that I may always have the same confidence, fortitude, patience, persistence, and profound faith and trust in the Lord as I come closer to Him daily.
I am happier than you are, because I have the Hidden Jesus within my heart - Saint Francisco Marto. Oh, my Jesus! This is for love of You, for the conversion of sinners, for the Holy Father, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary - Saint Jacinta Marto
Unless a man gives himself entirely to the Cross, in a spirit of humility and self-abasement; unless he casts himself down to be trampled underfoot by all and despised, accepting injustice, contempt and mockery; unless he undergoes all these things with joy for the sake of the Lord, not claiming any kind of human reward whatsoever - glory or honor or earthly pleasures - he cannot become a true Christian - Saint Mark the Evangelist
Saint Giles Mary of Saint Joseph is living proof of Saint Mother Teresa’s famous quote: “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
