“Do everything calmly and peacefully. Do as much as you can as well as you can. Strive to see God in all things without exception, and consent to His will joyously. Do everything for God, uniting yourself to him in word and deed. Walk very simply with the Cross of the Lord and be at peace with yourself.” WellsInspirationFaithWalksLordAll ThingsCrossesCatholicStriveDeedsChristian InspirationalExceptionConsentUniting Author:Saint Francis de Sales
“People can pass thirty nights in dancing and no one complains about it, but if they watch through a single Christmas night they cough and claim their stomach is upset the next morning.

“All true and living devotion presupposes the love of God and indeed it is neither more nor less than a very real love of God, though not always of the same kind; for that Love one while shining on the soul we call grace, which makes us acceptable to His Divine Majesty; when it strengthens us to do well, it is called Charity; but when it attains its fullest perfection, in which it not only leads us to do well, but to act carefully, diligently, and promptly, then it is called Devotion.” WellsKindRealSoulGraceDivinePerfectionCatholicShiningCharityDevotionGod LoveAcceptableReal LoveMajesty Author:Saint Francis de Sales
