Pondering Tidbits of Truth - June 1, 2017






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. Josemaria Escriva

"...prayer is not a question of what you say or feel, but of Love. And you love when you try to say something to the Lord, even though you might not actually say anything."

(From Furrow) 



Vatican II

"Christ the Lord founded one Church and one Church only. However, many communions present themselves to men as the true inheritors of Jesus Christ; all indeed profess to be the followers of the Lord, but they differ in mind and go their different ways, as if Christ Himself is divided. Certainly, such division openly contradicts the Will of Christ, scandalizes the world, and damages the most holy cause, the preaching of the Gospel to every creature."

(From Decree on Ecumenism) 

 
St. John Paul II 

"...the presence of the devil in the history of humanity is increased in the measure that man and society are separated from God."

(General Audience - August 20, 1986)

PRAYER OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA

"Eternal Father, all things are possible for You. Although You created us without our assistance, You will not save us unless we help. Therefore, I pray You re-create their wills so that they wish for what they do not wish for: I ask this of Your infinite mercy. You have created us out of nothing. Now that we exist have mercy on us. Re-make the vessel which You created in Your own image and likeness. Bring them back to Your grace through the grace and blood of You Son, the beloved Jesus Christ."
