Image
We've had enough of exhortations to be silent! Cry out with a hundred thousand tongues. I see that the world is rotten because of silence.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Everything comes from love, all is ordained for the salvation of man, God does nothing without this goal in mind.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
What is it you want to change? Your hair, your face, your body? Why? For God is in love with all those things and he might weep when they are gone.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
We are of such value to God that He came to live among us... and to guide us home. He will go to any length to seek us, even to being lifted high upon the cross to draw us back to Himself. We can only respond by loving God for His love.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
You [God] are a fire that takes away the coldness, illuminates the mind with its light, and causes me to know your truth and I know that you are beauty and wisdom itself. The food of angels, you give yourself to man in this fire of your love
St. Catherine of Siena

There is nothing we can desire or want that we do not find in God.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Of course you are unworthy. But when do you hope to be worthy? You will be no more worthy at the end than at the beginning. God alone is worthy of Himself, He alone can make us worthy of Him.
St. Catherine of Siena

It's one of the properties of love to love what is loved by the person we love.
St. Catherine of Siena

Strange that so much suffering is caused because of the misunderstandings of God's true nature. God's heart is more gentle than the Virgin's first kiss upon the Christ. And God's forgiveness to all, to any thought or act, is more certain than our own being.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Do not presume to choose your own way of serving instead of the one I have made for you.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Nothing great is ever achieved without much enduring.
St. Catherine of Siena

Since love for our Creator cannot be sustained unless we love others for God's sake.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
The human heart is always drawn by love.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Eternal Trinity... mystery deep as the sea, You could give me no greater gift than the gift of Yourself. For You are a fire ever burning and never consumed, which itself consumes all the selfish love that fills my being.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Even if [the Pope an incarnate devil], we ought not to raise up our heads against him, but calmly lie down to rest on his bosom... He who rebels against our Father is condemned to death, for that which we do to him we do to Christ: we honor Christ if we honor the Pope we dishonor Christ if we dishonor the Pope.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Make two homes for thyself, my daughter. One actual home . . . and the other a spiritual home which thou are to carry with thee always.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
There is no perfect virtue-none that bears fruit- unless it is exercised by means of our neighbor.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
The soul, as soon as she comes to know Me, reaches out to love her neighbors.
