SILENCE

 Silence exists so that we might speak to God.
And it is in silence that God communicates His graces to us………St Vincent de Paul

DO NOT GIVE UP

Sometimes life just gives us a bunch of lemons. 

The question that Christians need to answer is, “What do we do when life hands us a bunch of sour lemons?”

Do we complain? Do we quit serving the Lord? Do we throw the lemons? NO 

WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS, ASK GOD FOR THE STRENGTH TO MAKE A LEMONADE.

LIGHT IS FAITH

No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, that those who enter may see the light.‘ Luke 8.16

Reflection:

Your faith is a light. You must use not only to enlighten your life but all the world

LIBERTY

Today more than ever, man in chains is seeking emancipation and liberty. His tragedy is that he seeks it by means that bring him into ever greater enslavement. 

But freedom is a spiritual thing. It is a sacred and religious reality. Its roots are not in man but in God.

BEWARE OF TEMPTATIONS

"Yielding to a temptation is like yielding to a blackmailer; you pay to be free, and find yourself the more enslaved."

WHY WORRY?

Caring about what people think of you is useless. Most people don’t even know what they think of themselves.
