When you know how much
God is in love with you,
then you can only live your life
radiating that love.
--St. Mother Teresa of Kolkata
A Ship may sail in different directions, north or south, east or west, driven by various winds, yet the needle of its compass will always point towards the pole star.
Likewise, let everything turn upside down, not only about us but also within us: whether we are sad or happy, relaxed or restless, in peace or in turmoil, in light or darkness, in temptation or assurance, in attachment or aversion, in aridity or ardor, scorched by the sun or refreshed by dew, always ensure that your heart, soul and spirit, are always, as the needle of the compass, turned towards God our Creator and Saviour, our unique and sovereign good.
--St. Francis de Sales
