Our Lenten Journey, March 8, 2019
Quotes of the Day:
“Self-knowledge puts us on our knees, and it is very necessary for love. For knowledge of God produces love, and knowledge of self produces humility.”
“To be taken with love for a soul, God does not look on its greatness, but the greatness of its humility.”
— St John of the Cross, OCD
“Meek—free from the addiction to ordinary power—you can become a conduit of true divine power to the world.”
― Bishop Robert E. Barron, Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith
