Quote/s of the Day – 4 August

“You must accept your cross.   If you bear it courageously, it will carry you to heaven.”

“His look rests on you alone.”

“The sign of the cross is the most terrible weapon against the devil. Thus the Church wishes not only, that we have it continually in front of our minds, to recall to us just what our souls are worth and what they cost Jesus Christ but also that we should make it at every juncture ourselves: when we go to bed, when we awaken during the night, when we get up, when we begin any action, and, above all, when we are tempted.”

“The Devil writes down our sins – our Guardian Angel all our merits. Labour that the Guardian Angel’s book may be full and the Devil’s empty.”

“It is by battles against hell and by resistance to temptations, that we give God proofs of our love.”

“Here is the rule for everyday life. Do not do anything which you cannot offer to God.”

“The priest is not a priest for himself – he is for you. After God, the priest is everything.”
