"It is better for a man to be silent and be [a Christian], than to talk and not to be one. It is good to teach, if he who speaks also acts." - St. Ignatius of Antioch

Pondering Tidbits of Truth - April 23, 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.
Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI
"If we let Christ into our lives, we lose nothing, nothing,
absolutely nothing of what makes life free, beautiful, and great. No! Only in
this friendship are the doors of life opened wide. Only in this friendship is
the great potential of human existence truly revealed."

St. Vincent de Paul
“Read some chapter of a devout book…It is very easy and most
necessary, for just as you speak to God when at prayer, God speaks to you when
you read.”
(From Mary’s Mantle Consecration)
St. Catherine of Siena
“There are two goals, vice and virtue, and both require perseverance. If you would reach life, you must persevere in virtue, and if you would reach eternal death, persevere in vice.”
(From The Dialogue)
