Pray, act, and leave the rest to God.
March 1
“There are very many Catholics who are so intent upon exterior activities, and on activities which are divorced from what should be their daily life, that they allow no rest either to themselves or those who are near them: they leave no part in the world’s conversion to God, and forgetting His immemorial law, His way of acting in the world, they fail to surrender their lives to the Infant Christ…”

Does your life feel difficult?
February 28
“… however difficult or however insignificant our life may seem to be, it is precious to God as Christ is precious to God. On each one in whom Christ lives, the whole of the infinite love of God is concentrated at every moment.

Within His Peace
February 27
“The power of Christ is able to control fiercer storms than those of the wind and the sea. It is able to still the torrents of evil of the whole world in the stillness of his own heart. It is the power which enables him to command the floods of all the sorrow in the world and hold them within his peace. It is the power which can not only give life back to the dead, but can change death itself to life. It is the power of divine love.”

February 26
“We could scrub the floor for a tired friend, or dress a wound for a patient in a hospital, or lay the table and wash up for the family; but we shall not do it in martyr spirit or with that worse spirit of self-congratulation, of feeling that we are making ourselves more perfect, more unselfish, more positively kind.
We shall do it just for one thing, that our hands make Christ's hands in our life, that our service may let Christ serve through us, that our patience may bring Christ's patience back to the world.”

New Pro-Abortion Study Based on “Junk Data”
In spite of the hype from the mainstream media, a new study from the University of Maryland’s School of Public Health is claiming that abortion is 44 times safer than childbirth, but a closer look behind the headlines reveals that this conclusion is based on “junk data.”
What the Temptations of Jesus Teach Us About Satan
We find in the temptations of Jesus an example of one person who didn’t fall for Satan’s tricks. The account of His temptation in the desert gives invaluable instruction to the faithful and reads almost like a “how to” guide for discovering the wiles of Satan in order that we might be prepared.
Disasters are not God’s will
February 24
“Disasters are not God’s will; they are the result of sin and opposed to God’s will. But in His mercy He does allow that the suffering resulting from them, though never the sin that caused them, can be caught up into His love and do good.”
