Alphonsus Liguori
God loves all those who love him: I love them that love Me.
Alphonsus Liguori
Love tends to union with the object loved. Now Jesus Christ loves a soul that is in a state of grace with immense love He ardently desires to unite Himself with it. That is what Holy Communion does
Alphonsus Liguori
True, He is infinite Majesty, but He is also infinite Goodness and infinite Love. There can be no greater Lord than God neither can there be a more ardent lover than He.
Alphonsus Liguori
Those who are seeking the true religion will never find it outside the Catholic Church alone, because, in every other religion, if they trace it up to the author, they will find some impostor whose imagination furnished a mass of sophisms and errors
Alphonsus Liguori
Let your constant practice be to offer yourself to God, that He may do with you what He pleases.
