Greetings blessing and love to you and all.
Without further ado, here are photos I have taken to share with you. These are things that others have put together and also some of my work.
“The same everlasting Father who cares for you today will care for you tomorrow and every day.
Either he will shield you from suffering or give you unfailing strength to bear it.
Be at peace then and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginings.”
“During the night we must wait for the light.”
― Francis de Sales
Above is my shadow!
“Make friends with the angels, who though invisible are always with you. Often invoke them, constantly praise them, and make good use of their help and assistance in all your temporal and spiritual affairs.”
― Francis de Sales
“You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; and just so, you learn to love by loving. All those who think to learn in any other way deceive themselves.”
― Francis de Sales
“Certainly all virtues are very dear to God, but humility pleases Him above all the others, and it seems that He can refuse it nothing.”
― Francis de Sale
“From the heights of heaven Jesus Christ mercifully looks down upon you and graciously invites you there.”
― Francis de Sales
“You are going to take the high sea of the world; change not, on that account, patron or sails, anchor or wind. Have Jesus always for your patron, His Cross for a mast on which you must spread your resolutions as a sail. Your anchor shall be a profound confidence in Him, and you shall sail prosperously.
May the favorable wind of celestial inspirations ever fill your vessel's sails fuller and fuller and make you happily arrive at the port of a holy eternity.”
― Francis de Sales
“Oppose vigorously any tendency to sadness ... You must persevere. By means of sorrow the enemy tries to make us weary of good works, but if he sees that we don't give them up and that being done in spite of his opposition they have become very meritorious, he will stop troubling us.”
― Francis de Sales
Well brothers and sisters I have to face up to the possibility of my son, Harry, not surviving the battle against Leukemia. I shall be going to see him later today and will try to get into an upbeat mood for then. I welcome any of your prayers for us.
“Do not look forward to what may happen tomorrow. The same Eternal Father Who cares for you today will take care of you tomorrow, and every day of your life. He will either shield you from suffering, or He will give you unfailing strength to bear it. Be at peace then, and put aside all anxious thoughts.”
― Francis de Sales
“My God, I marvel that I am still so full of myself after having so often received Communion! O dear Jesus, be the child inside of us, so that we feel within and breathe forth nothing but you. Alas, you are so often within me; why am I so rarely in you? You enter into me; why am I so often outside of you? You are in my very self; why am I not in yours, to find there the great love of yours that transports our hearts?”

“God's favor floats as it were over all this and finds joy in turning all those miseries to the greater profit of those who love Him. From toil He makes patience spring forth.”
― Francis de Sales
“Be patient, you are in good company. Our Lord Himself, our Lady, the apostles, and countless saints, both men and women, have been poor.”
― Francis de Sales
“A man who can own pearls does not bother about shells, and those who aspire to virtue do not trouble themselves over honors.”
― Francis de Sales
Have a good day and please pass this on.
Your brother of Christ and all the saints,

“Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself.
Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections, but
instantly set about remedying them - every day begin the task anew.”
