Patience and Humility

“No one will ever know the full depth of his capacity for patience and humility as long as nothing bothers him. It is only when times are troubled and difficult that he can see how much of either is in him.”

- Saint Francis of Assisi

Where Does Your Strength Come From?

"What I think of as strength is insignificant in the grand scheme of things. It is only when I humble myself and allow God to work through me, to be strong IN me that I truly have any strength at all."

- An excerpt from You're Not as Strong as You Think by Peter on his blog Rediscovering the Church
