Harvesting The Fruits of Contemplation

“Sadness is looking at yourself; happiness is looking at God. Conversion is nothing more than shifting your gaze from below to above.” – Saint Carlo Acutis

“The only thing we really have to fear is sin…people are so concerned with the beauty of their bodies and do not care about the beauty of their souls.” – Saint Carlo Acutis

A PERMANENT QUESTION

"When we spend time with Jesus we become like Him. Why are we not encouraged to do so?"

Remember

"Every 'flaw' I see in others is just a reflection of my own sinful soul. I must remember this Truth the next time I choose to be unkind or critical of someone else.”

Ask Yourself:

"What have I: not seen? not heard? or not understood?"

PRAYER TO BE PRESERVED FROM SUDDEN DEATH

MOST AMIABLE JESUS "I humbly implore Thee by Thy ignominious Scourging, The Crowning with Thorns, Thy Holy Cross, and by all Thy Goodness, not to permit me to pass out of this world without having received Thy most holy Sacraments." -Prayer of St. Vincent Ferrer
