To distribute money belongs to the imperial dignity, but I offer up for the imperial dignity itself personal service to the Giver.

Saint Quote : Saint John Chrysostom

It is ever thus; the more you envy your brother, the greater good you confer upon him. God, who sees all, takes the cause of the innocent in hand, and, irritated by the injury you inflict, deigns to raise up him whom you wish to lower, and will punish you to the full extent of your crime. 

-- Saint John Chrysostom

Saint Quote : Saint Columba of Ireland

 

 

O Lord, grant us that love which can never die, which will enkindle our lamps but not extinguish them, so that they may shine in us and bring light to others. Most dear Savior, enkindle our lamps that they may shine forever in your temple. May we receive unquenchable light from you so that our darkness will be illuminated and the  darkness of the world will be made less. Amen.

-- Saint Columba of Ireland

O my Divine Savior, Transform me into Yourself. May my hands be the hands of Jesus. Grant that every faculty of my body May serve only to glorify You.
