No Need To Contemplate Hell?

(Image source: Wikimedia Commons)

I may think of hell as threefold: hell is torment of fire and other pains of sense in the company of demons and the damned; hell is the loss of God which is the greatest pain of hell; and hell is despair that will never end…Through pious meditation I must descend into hell while I live that I may not have to descend into it when I die.

Father Winfrid Herbst, S.D.S.

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.
