"To give ourselves to God in prayer is to find a door in our heart unlocking and opening to the hearts of other people." - Father Donald Haggerty

Be Truly Fearful

[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.
