Quote: April 29

Quote #1
“Look up: the highest there were the lowest here and coveted most the poverty and humility which accompanied them and our Master every step of his suffering life.”
~ St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

When I tend to take a narrow view of my situation and am overly concerned about success, I will remember that your life, Lord, gave all the appearance of failure. Give me a greater appreciation for the value of the cross in my life.


Quote #2
“As only a great necessity would make us decide to give remedies to a sick person in a violent attack of fever, so we should not generally reprove anyone at the very time they commit a fault.”
~ St. Vincent de Paul


Quote #3
Father, where I have been hurt, my first reaction is to retaliate. Teach me to forgive, even as you have forgiven me.

“I am asking Our Lord that he himself lead you by the hand.”
~ St. Vincent de Paul

As a parent gently teaches a child on the right path, so you, Lord, lead me. I am grateful for the care you take of me and those in my charge.


Quote #4
“May God be pleased to preserve you in perfect health and in that close union in which, by virtue of the Holy Spirit, you live together.”
~ St. Louise de Marillac

Lord, peace and harmony are truly heavenly virtues. Grant me these blessings for my family and always be present in its midst.
