Quote/s of the Day – 20 March – The Third Sunday of Lent – Ephesians 5:1-9, Luke 11:14-28
“Whoever does not gather
with me, scatters.”
Luke 11:23
“We recognise a tree by its fruit
and we ought to be able to recognise
a Christian by his action.
The fruit of faith
should be evident in our lives,
for being a Christian,
is more than making
sound professions of faith.
It should reveal itself
in practical and visible ways.
Indeed, it is better to keep quiet
about our beliefs
and live them out,
than to talk eloquently
about what we believe
but fail, to live by it.”
St Ignatius of Antioch (c 35-c 108)
Father of the Church
The waters have risen
and severe storms are upon us
but we do not fear drowning,
for we stand firmly upon a rock.
Let the sea rage,
it cannot break the rock.”
Let the waves rise,
they cannot sink the Boat of Jesus.”
St John Chrysostom (347-407)
Father and Doctor of the Church
“Without the Way, there is no going,
Without the Truth, there is no knowing,
Without the Life, there is no living.”
Thomas à Kempis (1380-1471)
