Quotes - 2005
 

January "You can make a difference by PRAYING.  The most important thing you can do about any problem is PRAY.  PRAY for guidance, for understanding, for wisdom, for a heart moved to action." Anthony T. Evans
 
February "In the light of faith I gain wisdom in the wisdom of the Word your Son; in the light of faith I am strong, constant, persevering, in the light of faith I have hope."
Catherine de Siena
 
March "God is always dropping seeds into our heart's soil.  They are seeds of love, goodness, faithfulness, kindheartedness, generosity, integrity and many other Gospel virtues and values... The seeds of God lie dormant in our hearts, ready to take root only if they are embraced." - Joyce Rupp
 
April "To love with understanding, and without understanding.
To love blindly, and to folly.
To see only what is loveable.
To think only of these things.
To see the best in everyone around, their virtues,
rather than their faults.
To see Christ in them!"
-Dorothy Day
 
May "I see this immense goodness of God reflected in every variety of people and in
all the facets of the universe that sing out the goodness of the Creator.  Each one mirrors the essence of God's beauty." -Joyce Rupp
 
June/July "You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late."  - Ralph Waldo Emerson
 
August "The habit of giving only enhances the desire to give." -Walt Whitman
 
September "One thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve." - Albert Schweitzer
 
October "Spare me the lust of self-vindication."-Augustine
 
November "If a child lives with criticism / He learns to condemn;
If a child lives with hostility / He learns to fight;
If a child lives with ridicule / He learns to be shy;
If a child lives with shame / He learns to feel guilty.
BUT
If a child lives with tolerance / He learns to be patient;
If a child lives with encouragement / He learns confidence;
If a child lives with praise / He learns to appreciate;
If a child lives with fairness/ He learns justice;
If a child lives with security / He learns to have faith;
If a child lives with approval / He learns to like himself;
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship
He learns to find LOVE in the world!"
-Dorothy Lawe Holt
 
December "I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. " ~Charles Dickens
