We
must know that God regards our purity of heart and tears of
compunction, not our many words.

Stand
fast, therefore, in this conduct and follow the example of the Lord,

each other, united in truth,' helping each other with the mildness of
the Lord, despising no man.

Saint Ambrose of Milan Quote
The
Church of the Lord is built upon the rock of the apostles among so
many dangers in the world; it therefore remains unmoved. The Church's
foundation is unshakable and firm against assaults of the raging sea.
Waves lash at the Church but do not shatter it. Although the elements
of this world constantly beat upon the Church with crashing sounds,
the Church possesses the safest harbor of salvation for all in
distress.

Saint Anthony Mary Zaccaria Quote
That
which God commands seems difficult and a burden. The way is rough;
you draw back; you have no desire to follow it. Yet do so and you
will attain glory.
