THE WISDOM OF THE LORD ACCOMPANIES US
“Despatch wisdom from the holy heavens, send her forth from your throne of glory to help me and to toil with me and teach me what is pleasing to you” (Wis 9:10).
LOVE GIVES VALUE TO OUR WORK
“A single work done calmly and conscientiously is more valuable than many works done in haste. God is not pleased with the quantity of our work, but with the love with which we work” (St. Francis de Sales).
NO LOAD IS TOO HEAVY
“God allows all kinds of difficulties for those who wish to serve Him, but as long as they entrust themselves to Him, He never allows them to succumb under the burden” (St. Francis de Sales).
Anyone who has seriously set out on the path of following Christ will be able to confirm this sentence of St. Francis de Sales. Our Father does not allow us to be tempted beyond our strength (1 Cor 10:13), nor does He allow us to collapse under the weight of the burdens we have to bear on the way to Him. Read More
