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.
Mother Mary Francis
“When great masterpieces of art are restored, layers and
layers of the overlay are removed before the real panting is found. So, it is
with our sins. We ask God to take off one coat after another of sin and
pretense until His real image is visible again.”
(From A Time of
Renewal)
Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
“God solicits each of us by a dialogue no other soul can hear.
His action on the soul is always for us alone. He sends no circular letters,
uses no party lines. He calls His sheep by name; He leaves the ninety-nine that
are safe to find the one that is lost. Once the soul becomes conscious of the
Divine Presence it whispers to itself: This is a message sent to me and to no
one else.”
(From Lift Up Your
Heart)
Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich
"Every pious desire, every good thought, every
charitable work inspired by the love of Jesus, contributes to the perfection of
the whole body of the faithful. A person who does nothing more than lovingly
pray to God for his brethren, participates in the great work of saving
souls."

The Life and Revelations of Anne Catherine Emmerich: Book 2)
