Quote: May 6

Quote #1
“We should delay for several hours, and reflect well in the presence of God, before we correct by reproof, especially when the fault is great and the person is little disposed to receive correction.”
~ St. Vincent de Paul

Lord, be with me when I have to reprove anyone. Keep far from me a self-righteous attitude, realizing that I, too, am a sinner.

Quote #2
“Into whatsoever state of blindness or obscurity I may fall, in whatever ignorance of God’s ways I may chance to be, if I seek out God in the simplicity of my heart, I will surely find him.”
~ St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

Lord, I know you will not despise a contrite, sincere heart. I only want to love and praise you for your great goodness to me, today and all the days of my life.

Quote #3

“We should read good and useful books, and abstain from reading those that only gratify our curiosity.”
~ St. Vincent de Paul

Help me, Lord, to be more discriminating in my reading and exposure to media. I don’t want my senses to be loaded with what is useless, that I can’t hear you speaking to me.

Quote #4

“Do it all in God’s way.”
~ St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

Those close to you, Lord, know the peace which comes from completely abandoning themselves to your Divine Providence. Teach me how to do this as I move through the hours and days of my life.
