Catherine Doherty quotes:

With God, every moment is the moment of beginning again.

Pain is the kiss of Christ.

Real zeal is standing still and letting God be a bonfire in you.

Faith sees God's face in every human face.

Listen to God's speech in his wondrous, terrible, gentle, loving, all-embracing silence.

A saint is a sinner who loves; it's that simple!

True silence is a garden enclosed, where alone the soul can meet its God.

I go to my past in order to discern the future.

Purity of heart is love for the weak who constantly fall.

Acquire inner peace and a multitude will find their salvation near you.

We do not go to mission lands to 'bring Jesus Christ' as much as to uncover him where he already is.

Faith is fudamentally a kind of folly ...

What binds us together is love, and only love. For love is a Person. Love is God.

Faith considers that its precariousness and its finiteness are but the womb in which it abides, moving toward the plenitude and fullness of the eternity which it desires and believes in and which revelation opens to it.

Faith walks simply, childlike, between the darkness of human life and the hope of what is to come.

Faith brings into our lives such freedom, such love, such peace, and such joy that there are no words in any language that can explain it. You have to have it in order to know it. You have to experience it in order to understand it. Faith liberates. It liberates love and hope. If I am free to love and free to hope, what more do I want of life?

With the gift of listening comes the gift of healing.

Lord, give me the heart of a child, and the awesome courage to live it out as an adult.

Faith allows us to enter peacefully into the dark night which faces every one of us at one time or another.

It is so important for us to have faith, trust, confidence in one another. It is the only way we can communicate. Without faith there is no communication, there is no love, or if there was a little love, it will die without hope, trust, and confidence. Even if it doesn't die right away, it will be so weak, so ill, and so tired that communication will be miserable as well.

True silence is the speech of lovers.

Faith is contagious when we show it to one another.

God reveals himself to those who wait for that revelation, and who don't try to tear at the hem of a mystery, forcing disclosure.

We do not have to wait for the hereafter - it is now that we are one with Christ.

She who received the seed of eternal glory Now dispenses grace, the seed of glory-to-come. My womb was the chalice of the impenetration of God That became the Incarnation of God and man

Every meal should be prepared with love and eaten in peace, because its purpose is to strengthen us for the service of Love.

To pass through the door that leads to God's kingdom, we must go down on our knees.

Love... love... love, never counting the cost.
