Quote/s of the Day – 29 July – “Month of the Most Precious Blood” – Memorial of St Martha
Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things; and yet only one thing is needful.
Luke 10:38-42
Another sign of (St Vincent Ferrer’s) unbounded hope in God’s providence was the little solicitude he evinced in the course of his great apostolate, either for his own personal maintenance, or that of the numerous company who followed him. His confidence in his heavenly Father never failed him. Neither he nor his companions were ever in want, and on one occasion, our Lord came miraculously to their aid.
Fr Andre Pradel (St Vincent Ferrer: His life, Spiritual Teaching and Practical Devotion)
Do not fear what may happen tomorrow. The same loving Father who cares for you today will care for you tomorrow and every day. Either He will shield you from suffering, or He will give you unfailing strength to bear it. Be at peace, then, and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginings.
Saint Francis de Sales
Hold your eyes on God and leave the doing to Him. That is all the doing you have to worry about.
Saint Jeanne de Chantal
The greater and more persistent your confidence in God, the more abundantly you will receive all that you ask.
Saint Albert the Great
Those whose hearts are enlarged by confidence in God run swiftly on the path of perfection. They not only run, they fly; because, having placed all their hope in the Lord, they are no longer weak as they once were. They become strong with the strength of God, which is given to all who put their trust in Him.
St Alphonsus Liguori
