SPIRITUAL    GUIDELINES

Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.

What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.

Men go abroad to wonder at the heights of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motions of the stars, and they pass by themselves without wondering.

Love is the beauty of the soul.

If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.

It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that changes men into angels.

Pray as though everything depends on God. Work as though everything depends on you.

Forgiveness is the remission of sins. For it is by this that what has been lost, and was found, is saved from being lost again.

The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.
