Saint Quote: Saint Augustine of Hippo

Now there is a great difference between believing in Christ, and in believing that Jesus is the Christ. For that he was the Christ even the devils believed; but he believes in Christ who both loves Christ, and hopes in Christ.

-- Saint Augustine of Hippo

Saint Quote: Saint Therese of Lisieux

The greatest honor God can do a soul is not to give it much, but to ask much of it.

-- Saint Therese of Lisieux

Saint Quote: Saint Caesarius of Aries

A poor person asks you for something: you ask God for something. He begs for a morsel of food; you beg for eternal life. Give to the beggar so that you may receive from Christ. For He is who says," Give and it will be given to you." It baffles me that you have the imprudence to ask for what you do not want to give.

-- Saint Caesarius of Aries

Saint Quote: Saint Francis de Sales

We must fear God out of love, not love Him out of fear.

-- Saint Francis de Sales

Saint Quote: Saint Irenaeus of Lyons

God did not ask us to follow Him because He needed our help, but because He knew that loving Him would make us whole.

-- Saint Irenaeus of Lyons

Saint Quote: Saint Gabriel the Archangel

Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever. And of his kingdom there shall be no end.

-- Saint Gabriel the Archangel to The Blessed Virgin Mary from Luke 1: 31 - 33

Saint Quote: Saint John Vianney

Tell the children about God and His Saints. During the holy time of Lent, speak to them of their suffering Savior. During Paschal time, of His glorious Resurrection. During Christmas time, of His Birth. You will see what a profound impression it will make on the minds of your children.

-- Saint John Vianney
