Quote of the Day (Fr. James Martin, on God's ‘Invitation to Friendship’)

“The call to sanctity is an invitation to friendship with God. It is a call that transformed the lives of the saints into gifts to the One who loved them into being. The invitation to holiness is a lifelong call to draw closer to God, who wants nothing more than to encounter us as the people we are and the saints we are meant to be.”—James Martin, S.J., My Life With the Saints (2006)

Quote of the Day (Ronald Knox, on ‘Waiting Upon God’)

“The love of obscurity, of waiting upon God alone and letting the world go its own way without you, is an integral part of sanctity.”—Fr. Ronald Knox, Pastoral Sermons and Occasional Sermons (1940)
