Therefore, because you are a Saviour, be Jesus to me! I am unwilling, Lord, I am unwilling to pay such attention to my wickedness that I should forget your goodness.’”
- St Thomas Aquinas OP

Chris McCandless: “You really believe in love then.”
Leonard Knight: “Yeah. Totally. This is a love story that is staggering to everybody in the whole world. That God really loves us, a lot.”
One of my favourite movies. <3 Not recommended for young audiences, but lots of good there. :)
So does anyone else think it’s… interesting that a Christian author would choose Friday to be the “happy day”?
He’s a “Christian author,” in as much as I’m a female ballerina. :P He’s more of a quasi-self help guru from what I’ve heard. :P
I’m in awe!
holy wow this is amazing.
Any idea what relic that is she is kissing?
It is pleasant to spend time with him, to lie close to his breast like the Beloved Disciple (cf. John 13:25) and to feel the infinite love present in his heart. If in our time Christians must be distinguished above all by the “art of prayer,” how can we not feel a renewed need to spend time in spiritual converse, in silent adoration, in heartfelt love before Christ present in the Most Holy Sacrament? How often, dear brother and sisters, have I experienced this, and drawn from it strength, consolation and support!
