Quote/s of the Day – 3 January – Help for those New Year Resolutions
“A tree is known by its fruit,
a man by his deeds.
A good deed is never lost,
he who sows courtesy,
reaps friendship
and he who plants kindness,
gathers love.”
St Basil the Great (329-379)
Father and Doctor of the Church
“Remember God
more often
than you breathe!”
“Grace is given,
not to those who speak [their faith]
but to those, who live their faith!”
St Gregory of Nazianzen (330-390)
Father and Doctor of the Church
“Be strengthened in Almighty God
and in the power of His might,
for with His help, nothing is difficult.
Throw off the heavy load of your own will,
cast aside the burden of sin
and gird yourselves as valiant warriors!
Forget what you are leaving behind;
strain forward to the great things before you.
I tell you that every place where you set foot,
shall be yours.
For the Spirit, Who goes before your face
is Christ the Lord.
He will carry you to the topmost peak
in the arms of His Love.”
St Francis of Assisi (c1181-1226)
