Pondering Tidbits of
Truth is my simple and
inadequate way of providing nuggets of spiritual wisdom for you to chew on from
time to time.
St. Thomas Aquinas
“If you are looking for an
example of patience, behold there on the cross the most excellent example of
patience. For great patience is shown in two ways. Either when anyone endures
great pain with resignation or when anyone endures that which he was able to
avoid and did not avoid.”
(From The Aquinas Catechism: A Simple
Explanation)
“Most of the evils which beset
the Church and most of the problems with which the Catholic Church is plagued,
are not due to bad will. No, they are mainly due to ignorance of Christ’s
revealed truth.”
(From Acerbo
Nimis, 1)
“…Christ affirms that when
a man marries a woman, he marries both her body and her soul; he marries the
whole person. If he gets tired of the body, he may not thrust her body away for
another, since he is still responsible for her soul.”
(From The Life of Christ)
