The Person of Christ is to me the surest as well as the most sacred of all facts; as certain as my own personal existence; yea, even more so: for Christ lives in me, and He is the only valuable part of my existence. I am nothing without my Savior; I am all with Him, and would not exchange Him for the whole world. ~Philip Schaff

"In reality, moral rules are directions for running the human machine. Every moral rule is there to prevent a breakdown, or a strain, or a friction, in the running of that machine...When you are being taught how to use any machine, the instructor keeps on saying, 'No, don't do it like that,' because, of course, there are all sorts of things that look all right and seem to you the natural way of treating the machine, but do not really work." ~C.S. Lewis

Belief is truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart. ~Joesph Fort Newton

When we lose out ability to change, we can easily be physically alive but spiritually dead. This could be why God wants us to keep moving forward and deeper in our spiritual life. We are either growing or we are dying. ~Trevor Hudson

To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek Him the greatest adventure; to find Him, the greatest achievement.

~Saint Augustine

In a world where there is so much noise, so much bewilderment, there is a need for silent adoration of Jesus concealed in the Host. Be assiduous in the prayer of adoration and teach it to the faithful. It is a source of comfort and light, particularly to those who are suffering. ~Pope Benedict XVI
