April Catholic Quote To Live By

“The Lord’s triumph, on the day of the Resurrection, is final.

Where are the soldiers the rulers posted there?

Where are the seals that were fixed to the stone of the tomb?

Where are those who condemned the Master?

Where are those who crucified Jesus?

He is victorious and faced with His victory,

those poor wretches have all taken flight.

Be filled with hope:

Jesus Christ is always victorious.”

November Catholic Quote To Live By

“What made the holy apostles and martyrs endure fierce agony and bitter torments, except faith and especially faith in the resurrection?

It is this that makes us put aside the goods of the present in the hope of future goods. It is because of faith that we exchange the present for the future.”

Christ in the flesh, rejoice with trembling and with joy; with trembling because of your sins, with joy because of your hope.”
