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.
Dr. Peter Kreeft
“In our day, the Sacrament of
Confession has suffered a radical decline. In one large Dutch diocese during a
twelve-month period there were no confessions. There is no place on earth the
Devil fears more than the confessional. His desperate propaganda has been
incredibly successful even within the Church.”
(From Christianity for Modern Pagans -Pascal’s Pensees)
Rev. M. Raymond, O.C.S.O.
“As I write this book [God, A Woman, and The Way], I know
that out of the almost two billion persons on the earth at this moment [1954],
not more than one third of them knows so much as the name of the One who died
that they might live eternally. And as one very observant mystic remarked: ‘Out
of that third, close to ninety-nine per cent of them know it in vain.’ Is that not enough to set the
nine choirs of the angels weeping?”
(From God, A Woman, and The Way )
Servant of God Lucia Dos Santos
“When lovers are together, they
spend hours and hours repeating the same thing: “I love you!” What is missing
in the people who think the rosary monotonous is Love; and everything that is
not done for love is worthless.”
(From Champions of the Rosary)
