"Know that the salvation, the perfection of My servants stands on this one thing, that they do My will alone, ever striving to fulfill it in all things; that they attend to Me, and serve Me every moment of their lives.  The more diligently they apply themselves to this, the nearer they approach perfection…"

Jesus to St. Catherine of Siena

      Image Source: Wikimedia Commons ) In the end it does not really matter whether I am successful in a thousand and one other things.   In the end the only thing that matters is whether or not I save my soul.   And it is up to me! –   Father Winfrid Herbst, S.D.S.

(Source: Wikimedia Commons ) “When I thought of God’s judgment too long, I grew fearful, and if I thought too long of God’s mercy, I grew lax. And this experience has taught me to sing not alone the mercies of the Lord, and not alone in His judgment, but judgment and mercy together in one embrace.” (St. Bernard of Clairvaux)
