Daily Thought from the Saints

"See, my children, we must reflect that we have a soul to save, and an eternity that awaits us. The world, its riches, pleasures, and honors will pass away; heaven and hell will never pass away. Let us take care, then. The saints did not all begin well; but they all ended well. We have begun badly; let us end well, and we shall go one day and meet them in heaven."

— St. John Vianney

Daily Scripture Verse

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; teach and admonish one another in all wisdom; and with gratitude in your hearts sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."

Colossians 3:16-17

Daily Meditation

"The greatest suffering of the souls in purgatory, it seems to me, is the awareness that something in them displeases God, that they have deliberately gone against His great goodness. I can also see that the divine essence is so pure and light-filled—much more than we can imagine—that the soul that has but the slightest imperfection would rather throw itself into a thousand hells than appear thus before the divine presence."

— St. Catherine of Genoa

Daily Catholic Wisdom

In an age of mass media beautiful concepts are easily cheapened, even mauled. By overuse a magnificent idea can be trivialized. By abuse it can be degraded. An obvious example is the word love.

—Fr. Thomas Dubay, S.M.
from his book “Authenticity: A Biblical Theology of Discernment”

A Prayer from Notre Dame University

Rev. Michael Belinsky, C.S.C.

Lord Jesus, may everything we do this day honor the profound depth of your love for us. May our gratitude show itself in fruits of justice, love, and peace for each person we meet and for those throughout the world who continue to suffer. Thank you for your love. Amen!
