“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Anonymous

“Every effort should be made to meet the needs of the nondisordered children in the family, but spouses have the same needs, too. The need for one-on-one quality time between spouses is often overlooked. Indeed, after each day spent trying to meet the needs of all children in the family as well as working a job and attending to all of life's other chores, it is most often the husband or wife who gets ignored. Parents need time away from the concerns of the world to focus just on each other.”

“St. John Chrysostom states: “Did you commit sin? Enter the Church [. . .] for here is the physician, not the judge; here one is not investigated, one receives remission of sins” [. . .] If the Church is a “physician,” then Her role is to heal the break with God and neighbor. Sin is missing the mark of being centered on God and His Will and is considered, therefore, to be an illness or infirmity. With healing we are restored to a former condition.27”
Nicole Roccas, Time and Despondency: Regaining the Present in Faith and Life

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

“not. If God does not exist, we face too many problems. Where does morality come from? Why are we personal beings when naturalistic evolution says we are the result of an impersonal and undirected process? How can we even trust our reasoning abilities if they’re the result of random, impersonal forces? A purely naturalistic universe just doesn’t add up.”
