Saint Bernardine of Siena Quote

Tribulation is the guardian of the heart. It puts man out of the way of many a fall, it urges him to fight for truth, to flee from dangerous occasions, to ask the divine assistance.

Saint Bernardine of Siena Quote

When a fire is lit to clear a field, it burns off all the dry and useless weeds and thorns. When the sun rises and darkness is dispelled, robbers, night-prowlers and burglars hide away. So when Paul's voice was raised to preach the Gospel to the nations, like a great clap of thunder in the sky, his preaching was a blazing fire carrying all before it. It was the sun rising in full glory. Infidelity was consumed by it, false beliefs fled away, and the truth appeared like a great candle lighting the whole world with its brilliant flame.

Saint Bernardine of Siena Quote

Every grace granted to man has three degrees in order; for by God it is communicated to Christ, from Christ it passes to the Virgin, and from the Virgin it descends to us.
