Uplifting quote from St. Ambrose of Milan 

 

 

We are all God's and Christ is everything for us. If you want to heal your wounds, He is a doctor; If you're burning with fever, He is the fountain; If you find yourself overwhelmed by guilt, He is justice, If you need help, He is strength; If you're afraid of death, He is life; If you desire paradise, He is the way; If you flee from the darkness, He is light; If you seek food, He is nourishment. So enjoy and see how sweet is the Lord. Happy the one who hopes in Him.

Seniors' Tips 

 

Fantastic gift for weddings 

 

 

Great wedding gift idea: give the couple a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary & another of St. Joseph. Add a note for the couple to take Mary & St. Joseph as their guide in marriage and in life...and they will be happy now and forevermore, no matter what may come their way. They will remember this advice every time they look at the statues.

Pain / Suffering / Health 

 

Suffering like a Catholic 

 

 

As we age and suffer more diverse pains, it is good to keep in mind that what the elect suffers willingly here will be rewarded in heaven. Offer all those pains up! Offer them for your loved ones and others in need. They are like precious jewels. No matter what our condition, we have always something to offer if we offer up our sufferings. Virgin most sorrowful, pray for us.

A Pat on the Back 

 

Don't be discouraged 

 

 

Dear fellow Catholic, don't be discouraged, in the end God wins! In the meantime, pray and offer up your troubles to God. He loves you so much! Things of this earth are fleeting. Our true home is in Heaven. Maybe try some spiritual reading of beloved saints, perhaps St. Therese. And pray to the Blessed Virgin and your own beloved patron saint. I am sure they will help you so very much.
