Quote by Mother Catherine Thomas of Divine Providence

“A true spouse of Christ gives little thought to herself. A person who constantly thinks of himself is rarely at peace, nor is a person who has no control of his desires, who yearns for material things beyond his means. Whoever has more concern for his body than he has for his soul, who insists on his own will instead of God’s will, who is more anxious about time than he is about eternity, more conscious of the absence of comforts than he is about the presence of God, more anxious to be loved and pampered than he is to love and suffer, more interested in receiving favors and being consoled than he is in aiding his neighbor and comforting others—there is a person who seldom knows peace.”
