God of hope, I look to you with an open heart and yearning spirit. During this Advent season, I will keep alert and awake, listening for your word and keeping to your precepts. My hope is in you.
Matthew Kelly
Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. Hope is one of those things that you can't buy, but that will be freely given to you if you ask. Hope is the one thing people cannot live without. Hope is a thing of beauty.
Matthew Kelly
Discipline is the path to happiness.

Your weaknesses are the key to the unimaginable bigger future that God has envisioned for you. Your strengths are probably already bearing all the fruit they can.

Matthew Kelly
On the one hand, we all want to be happy. On the other hand, we all know the things that make us happy. But we don't do those things. Why? Simple. We are too busy. Too busy doing what? Too busy trying to be happy. This is the paradox of happiness that has bewitched our age.
Matthew Kelly
We become the books we read.
Matthew Kelly
You will learn more from your friends than you ever will from books. Choose your friends wisely
Matthew Kelly
Love is a choice, love is an act of will, you can choose to love.
Matthew Kelly
You cannot be healthy and happy without discipline. If you want to measure the level of happiness in your life, just measure the level of discipline in your life. You will never have more happiness than you have discipline.
Matthew Kelly
Prayer is like a great love. When you start dating the silence can be awkward, but as you grow to know each other you can sit in silence for hours and just being with each other is a great comfort.
Matthew Kelly
Our essential purpose is to become the best version of ourselves.
Matthew Kelly
The notion of freedom proclaimed by the modern world is anti-discipline. But true freedom cannot be separated from discipline.
