It is in the depths of the heart that the true intensity of the Christian life lies, it is there that God dwells, adored and served by faith, recollection, humility, obedience, simplicity, labour, and love.

Bl Columba Marmion:
"Let us offer God a ceaseless thanksgiving for having made us capable of "having a share in the inheritance of the saints in light". The call to faith is a very great benefit because it contains, in seed-germ, a calling to eternal bliss in the vision of God."

[Bl Columba Marmion @BlColumba]

"The soul of every adult is enlightened, at least once, like the Magi, by the star of a calling to eternal salvation. To all, light is given" ~ Bl Columba Marmion, Christ in His Mysteries. #Epiphany #Magi #BaptismOfTheLord #WeddingFeastatCana

"The manifestation of God to men is a mystery so unheard-of that during the early centuries the Church had no feast-day to honour principally the Saviour's birth at Bethlehem; she celebrated the feast-day of 'Divine manifestations' of the person of the Incarnate Word." #Epiphany

[Fr John S. Hogan, ocds @jshocds]

Baptism of the Lord, end of Christmas season (that was quick!). We see Jesus’ humility, his proclamation as Messiah, his solidarity with us sinners. Our baptism brings us into Christ, into his life so we can become holy. & as life is so short, in him we can hope for eternal life

[Bl Columba Marmion @BlColumba]

"Jesus so far humbles Himself as to let Himself be mistaken for one of a crowd of sinners...He acknowledges it as fitting that he be struck for the sake of divine justice and behold, the Father proclaims Him to be the object of all His delight." ~ Bl Columba #BaptismOfTheLord

"A world without God can only be a world without meaning. A society without God, a society that does not know Him and treats Him as non-existent, is a society that loses its measure." - Pope Benedict XVI

“Más fuerte es el niño que en la tempestad se agarra a las rocas, que el hombre abandonado al vaivén de las olas”.
