“If we refuse this gift of hope, we stray into presumption or its opposite, despair. In the sin of presumption, we think we will be saved without any personal commitment to the moral life. In the sin of despair, we lose hope in God’s mercy and believe we cannot be saved.” - United States Catholic Catechism for Adults, p. 343 (from Chapter 25. First Commandment: Believe in the True God)
St. Josemaría Escrivá, pray for us!
“Don’t say: “That person bothers me.” Think: “That person sanctifies me.”” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“A Saint is a sinner that keeps trying.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“To reform. Every day a little. This has to be your constant task if you really want to become a saint.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Great holiness consists in carrying out the little duties of each moment.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Don't judge without having heard both sides. Even persons who think themselves virtuous very easily forget this elementary rule of prudence.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“If you have so many defects, why are you surprised to find defects in others?” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Compromise is a word found only in the vocabulary of those who have no will to fight.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Christian optimism is not a sugary optimism, nor is it a mere human confidence that everything will turn out all right. It is an optimism that sinks its roots into an awareness of our freedom, and the sure knowledge of the power of grace. It is an optimism that leads us to make demands on ourselves, to struggle to respond at every moment to God's call.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
St. Charles Borromeo, pray for us!
See you in the Eucharist!
