SET THE WORLD ON FIRE

If you are what you should be, you will set the whole world on fire.
-St. Catherine of Siena

HOW MUCH JESUS LOVES YOU

When you look at the crucifix you understand how much Jesus loved you then. When you look at the sacred host, you understand how much Jesus loves you now.
Bl. Mother Teresa of Calcutta

FIRE OF LOVE

In times of aridity when I am incapable of praying, of practicing virtue, I seek little opportunities, mere trifles, to give pleasure to Jesus; for instance a smile, a pleasant word when inclined to be silent and to show weariness. If I find no opportunities, I at least tell Him again and again that I love Him; that is not difficult and it keeps alive the fire in my heart. Even though this fire of love might seem extinct I would still throw little straws upon the embers and I am certain it would rekindle.
-St. Therese the Little Flower
XVI letter to her sister Celine

LORD, COME IN!

“Lord, come in! Enter my small life! Give me your very self.”
