Quote

To join two things together there must be nothing between them or there cannot be a perfect fusion. Now realize that this is how God wants our soul to be, without any selfish love of ourselves or of others in between, just as God loves us without anything in between.

More quotes by St. Catherine of Siena

Image
And of what should we be afraid? Our captain on this battlefield is Christ Jesus. We have discovered what we have to do. Christ has bound our enemies for us and weakened them that they cannot overcome us unless we so choose to let them. So we must fight courageously and mark ourselves with the sign of the most Holy Cross.

Love does not stay idle.
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
Start being brave about everything. Drive out darkness and spread light. Don’ look at your weaknesses. Realize instead that in Christ crucified you can do everything.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Every evil, harm and suffering in this life comes from the love of riches.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
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
To the servant of God... every place is the right place, and every time is the right time.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
From self-knowledge flows the stream of humility, which never seizes on mere report, nor takes offense at anything, but bears every insult, every loss of consolation, and every sorry, from whatever direction they may come, patiently, with joy.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Father, I am hungry for the love of God give this soul her food, her Lord in the Eucharist
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Since love for our Creator cannot be sustained unless we love others for God's sake.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
Charity is the sweet and holy bond which links the soul with its Creator: it binds God with man and man with God.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
The soul is in God and God in the soul, just as the fish is in the sea and the sea in the fish.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
It is human to sin, but diabolic to persist in sin.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
You are rewarded not according to your work or your time but according to the measure of your love.
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
God cannot leave us. It is just that our soul is so vast, we do not always feel His lips upon the veil.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
The devil never sleeps.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
All the way to heaven is heaven, because Jesus said, I am the way.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
The soul, as soon as she comes to know Me, reaches out to love her neighbors.
St. Catherine of Siena
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.
