Daily Inspiration: 365 Quotes from Saints

by Wyatt North

If you need inspiration let the words of God’s most obedient servants light your path. The word “saint” comes from the Latin word “sanctus,” a translation of the Greek word, “hagios,” which means “holy.” While all of us are capable of holiness, canonization is the Church’s official recognition that a particular person displayed an extraordinary degree of holiness, or devotion to God, during his or her time on Earth. There is much to be learned from the words, acts, and lives of the saints of the Roman Catholic Church. They provide undeniable examples of the best that humankind is capable of—virtues like kindness, charity, love for each other, especially for the lowest and the least among us, courage in the face of adversity, humility, and selflessness. They embody the deepest love a person can have for God through their willingness to sacrifice all, even their lives, for their faith. They remind us that in our darkest moments we are not alone, and in our joys and triumphs they are reminders of God’s grace. You can take a few minutes every day to read one of the 365 quotes in this book and the accompanying text. Some start each day with prayer and devotional reading, and they carry that bit of serenity with them throughout their day. Others prefer to save these readings until the day is done, drifting to sleep wrapped in the warm blanket of God’s love. We hope that the wisdom of the ages, as articulated through the words of the saints, find their way into your heart.

I really enjoying reading about Saints. I liked the quotes and the stories about the Saints’ lives. Some of the things Saints went through were horrific. A lot of wisdom from Saints through their words and how they lived their lives by putting themselves aside and focusing on the Lord and what He wanted them to do with their lives.

The Quote and the Saint

This is a wonderful book that quotes so many of those proclaimed Stains by the Catholic Church, they are all incredible Men and Women who have been worth of the honour. Every page has a quote from a Staint and then some information about them of their achievements and miracles that the LORD has done through them, or the servitude they have demonstrated and lived by. It has 365 pages so you can have have one as part of your daily devotion or just use to encourage yourself.
