“If you want God to hear your prayers, hear the voice of the poor. If you wish God to anticipate your wants, provide those of the needy without waiting for them to ask you. Especially anticipate the needs of those who are ashamed to beg. To make them ask for alms is to make them buy it.” IfsWantNeedsInspirationFaithAsksWishWaitingVoicePrayerPoorCatholicAshamedOur PrayersAnticipateServing OthersNeedyAlms Author:Thomas of Villanova
“If God causes you to suffer much it is a sign that He has great designs for you and that He certainly intends to make you a saint. And if you wish to become a great saint, entreat Him yourself to give you much opportunity for suffering; for there is no wood better to kindle the fire of holy love than the wood of the cross, which Christ used for His own great sacrifice of boundless charity.” IfsGivingInspirationUsedSufferingFaithOpportunityWishCausesChristFireSacrificeDesignHolyCrossesCharitySaintWoodsChristian InspirationalBoundlessKindlesGreat DesignGreat Sacrifice Author:Ignatius of Loyola
