Love is not a passing visitor who pays us a call
and then goes away.
He establishes in us his permanent dwelling
and lives in intimate union with our souls as their eternal Guest.

 
Servant of God, Luis Maria Martinez, 20th century

God loves you more than you love yourself;
and more than anyone else loves you.
He is unceasingly solicitous for your good.

 
Servant of God, Luis Maria Martinez, 20th century

Recognize to whom you owe the fact that you exist,
that you breathe, that you understand, that you are wise,
and, above all, that you know God
and hope for the kingdom of heaven.

Allowing ourselves to be brought under the gaze of God,
we understand the realization that our lives are in God’s hands.

Every distinction becomes secondary
to the dignity of being children of God,
who, through his love, creates a real and substantial equality.

Love is from God by the very fact that God himself is love.

 
St. Leo the Great, 5th century

It is through God’s goodness
that all that is good is given to us.

 
St. Ambrose, 4th century

Things have a price and can be for sale,
but people have a dignity that is priceless,
and worth far more than things.
