Quote/s of the Day – 25 May – St Madeleine Sophie Barat RSCJ (1779-1865) Virgin, Religious, Foundress of the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
“Our Lord, Who saved the world,
through the Cross,
will only Work for the good of souls,
through the Cross.”
“God does not ask of us,
the perfection of tomorrow,
nor even of tonight
but only, of the present moment. ”
“More is gained by indulgence,
than by severity.”
“Let us leave acts, not words.
No-one will have time to read us.”
“Give only good example,
to the children;
never correct them,
when out of humour or impatient.
We must win them
by an appeal to their piety
and to their hearts.
Soften your reprimands with kind words;
encourage and reward them.
That is, in short, our way of educating.”
