Sayings of the Saints 

All those who belong to Jesus Christ are fastened with Him to the Cross. ... A Christian during the whole course of his life should, like Jesus, be on the Cross. It would be an act of rashness to descend therefrom, since Jesus Christ did not descend, even when the Jews offered to believe in Him. The time for driving out the nails of this Cross was only after death; there is then no time to extract the nails whilst we live; we must wait until our sacrifice is consummated. So strong sometimes are the storms of life that strength of arm is of no avail, and there is no other means to save us from shipwreck than trusting in the Cross of Jesus Christ by which we are consecrated.

Saint Augustine of Hippo

Sayings of the Saints 

And in general, see that you take infinitely less care of those edifices which are raised with stone and mortar, than of the spiritual temples of God; these temples are your brethren and the pupils entrusted to your faithful care, whom you should feed, watch over, and especially urge on to advance in virtue; this is the sovereign duty committed to your zeal.

Saint Francis Xavier 

I Live - Now Not I

Sayings Of The Saints

Sayings of Saint John Gabriel

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.

Above all,
Transform my soul and all its powers
So that my memory, will and affection
May be the memory, will and affections
Of Jesus.

I pray You
To destroy in me all that is not of You.
Grant that I may live but in You, by You and for You,
So that I may truly say, with Saint Paul,
"I live - now not I - But Christ lives in me.
- Saint John Gabriel
