Do You Stink?


(Image source: Wikimedia Commons)
[St. Catherine of Siena] refused to tolerate any faintheartedness in the service of God.  She was utterly convinced that when the salvation of souls was at stake being unduly tolerant or understanding with mediocrity was totally unacceptable, because it is in effect only a concession to laziness or cowardice. 

“Enough of all this soft soap!, she cried out.  “All it does is cause the members of Christ’s Spouse to stink!” 

Francis Fernandez

Your Destiny...Your Duty

(Image Source - Wikimedia Commons ) This is the Will of God – your sanctification.  To be a child of Mary means to be a saint.  That is your destiny.  That is your duty.  That is the one work of your life and your life's only work…there is only one sorrow: not to be a saint.  God has willed that you be a saint; has made it the whole purpose of your life, and the only meaning of all your living.  Rev. M. Raymond, O.C.S.O.
