In the homeschooling community, there is a saying, "Heaven over Harvard!" It’s a great reminder that our ultimate goal is eternity, no matter our earthly success. Sending prayers to @JensenHuang today. The beautiful thing about our faith is that no matter our journey, Jesus is always waiting to welcome us with open arms. 🙏

Most Christians think silence is just the absence of sound, but St. Isaac the Syrian revealed a deeper mystery: "Silence is the mystery of the world to come, but speech is an engine of this world." In quiet prayer, eternity touches time. 🕯️ #ChurchFathers#Catholic

Most people think sanctity requires flawless focus, but St. Teresa of Ávila revealed a hidden key to holiness: 'Do not be distressed by distractions... the soul is not the mind.' Sanctity isn't the absence of mental noise—it's the persistence of love. 🕯️
Most Christians think saintly friendships were effortless, but St. Francis de Sales revealed a hidden key to parish peace: “Nothing is so strong as gentleness.” On All Saints Day, remember the saints didn't agree on everything—they simply loved beyond offense. 🕯️ #Catholic
