Pondering Tidbits of Truth - October 15, 2020


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

 

 

 

Father Kevin M. Cusick

“When we are ashamed of the truth about how God made us, and ashamed to tell others that truth, we are asking our Lord to be ashamed of us before His heavenly Father when we stand before the throne of the Triune God at the end of our earthly lives.”

(From article, The Kingdom For A Pronoun, published in the October 1, 2020 issue of The Wanderer)

 

Venerable Bruno Lanteri

 

Be on guard against discouragement and lack of trust. Strive to do well all that you do, but do this with respect for your humanity, without striving for impossible perfection, focusing simply on the day at hand. Remember that "the just man falls seven times a day," and so you will find blessing in beginning not only every day, but every hour."

(From Overcoming Spiritual Discouragement

 

Jesus to St. Catherine of Siena

"Nothing has ever happened and nothing happens save by the plan of My divine Providence. In all things that I permit, in all things that I give you, in tribulations and in consolations, temporal or spiritual, I do nothing save for your good, so that yo may be sanctified in Me and that My Truth be fulfilled in you."

(From The Dialogue

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."
