The Gift of Fear

(Image Source)

[O]ne of the most troublesome things that we have to contend with in life is crippling fear.  God’s response is the gift of the fear of the Lord by which we are overawed by a sense of His greatness and of our longing for Him. This gift makes us fear ever losing One who loves us so much. And it sets us straight: we reject anything that would imperil our relationship with God.

 Father Peter Cameron, O.P.

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.
