Miracles

"Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see."

--C.S. Lewis

Dream a new dream

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”

--C. S. Lewis

True love

"When one loves, one does not calculate."

--Saint Therese of Lisieux

(On this Octave day of the Feast of Saint John, the beloved disciple,  I wish you the incalculable love which only Love can give.)

Scattering flowers

"Love proves itself by deeds, so how am I to show my love? Great deeds are forbidden me. The only way I can prove my love is by scattering flowers and these flowers are every little sacrifice, every glance and word, and the doing of the least actions for love."

--Saint Therese of Lisieux, born January 2, 1873

Saint Therese, pray for us. 

Good for us

"I am sure God keeps no one waiting unless that is good for us to wait."

--C. S. Lewis

Precious

"Only the heart knows how to find what is precious."

--Fyodor Dostoyevsky

(And may you, dear readers, find what is most precious in this new year.  May Almighty God richly bless you and all those dear to you.)  

The Gift

"“God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.”

--C.S. Lewis
