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.
Pope Francis
“I have a dogmatic certainty: God
is in every person’s life. God is in everyone’s life. Even if the life of a
person has been a disaster, even if it is destroyed by vices, drugs or anything
else—God is in this person’s life. You can, you must try to seek God in
every human life. Although the life of a person is a land full of thorns and
weeds, there is always a space in which the good seed can grow. You have to
trust God.”
(Interview by Antonio Spadaro, SJ)
St. Pio of Pietrelcina
“While suffering is repugnant to our human nature, if
endured with the right spirit, it is so beneficial that if one only knew the
value of it, one would gladly exchange pleasure for pain.”
St. Catherine of Siena
“I distribute the virtues quiet diversely; I do not give all
of them to each person…I shall give principally charity to one; justice to
another; humility to this one; a living faith to that one…And so, I have given
many gifts and graces, both spiritual and temporal, with such diversity that I
have not given everything to one single person, so that you may be constrained
to practice charity towards one another.”
(Catechism of the
Catholic Church 1937)
