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. John Bosco
"Health is God’s great gift, and we must spend it entirely for Him. Our eyes should see only for God, our feet walk only for Him, our hands labor for Him alone; in short, our entire body should serve God while we still have the time. Then, when He shall take our health and we shall near our last day, our conscience will not reproach us for having misused it."
(From Daily Salesian Inspiration)
Peter Kreeft, Ph.D.
“The point is simply that without God’s grace we cannot be good. Without love, justice turns to cruelty. Without hope, courage turns to blind despair. Without faith, this-worldly wisdom is foolishness to God. The two levels, natural and supernatural, hang together.”
(From Back To Virtue)
St. Padre PÃo “Pray that God will console you when you feel the burden of the Cross, for in doing so you are in no way acting against the will of God, but you are placing yourself beside the Son of God who asked His Father during the Agony in the Garden to send Him some relief. But if He is not willing to give it be ready to pronounce the same ‘Fiat,’ ‘So be it,’ that Jesus did.” |
