Sunday Quote: On the Poor and Unloved
. . . I do not think there can ever be a cure for the terrible sickness of feeling unloved.
None of us has the right to condemn anyone. Even when we see people doing bad and we don’t know why they do it. Jesus invites us not to pass judgment. Maybe we are the ones who have helped make them what they are. We need to realize that they are our brothers and sisters. . . .
Be kind, very kind, to the suffering poor. We little realize what they go through. The most difficult part is not being wanted.1

Sunday Quote: Prayer
Love to pray. Feel the need to pray often during the day. Prayer enlarges the heart until it is capable of containing God’s gift of Himself. Ask and seek and your heart will grow big enough to receive Him and keep Him as your own.1
