Ignatius Loyola Quotes

Be generous to the poor orphans and those in need. The man to whom our Lord has been liberal ought not to be stingy. We shall one day find in Heaven as much rest and joy as we ourselves have dispensed in this life Picture Quote #1

After you have made a decision that is pleasing to God, the Devil may try to make you have second thoughts. Intensify your prayer time, meditation, and good deeds. For if Satan’s temptations merely cause you to increase your efforts to grow in holiness, he’ll have an incentive to leave you alone Picture Quote #1

One of the most admirable effects of Holy Communion is to preserve the soul from sin, and to help those who fall through weakness to rise again.

Above all, remember that God looks for solid virtues in us, such as patience, humility, obedience, abnegation of your own will - that is, the good will to serve Him and our neighbor in Him. His providence allows us other devotions only insofar as He sees that they are useful to us Picture Quote #1

Remember that the good angels do what they can to preserve men from sin and obtain God’s honor. But they do not lose courage when men fail Picture Quote #1

He who goes about to reform the world must begin with himself, or he loses his labor Picture Quote #1

If our church is not marked by caring for the poor, the oppressed, the hungry, we are guilty of heresy Picture Quote #1

The enemy is like a woman, weak in face of opposition, but correspondingly strong when not opposed. In a quarrel with a man, it is natural for a woman to lose heart and run away when he faces up to her; on the other hand, if the man begins to be afraid and to give ground, her rage, vindictiveness and fury overflow and know no limit Picture Quote #1

True, I am in love with suffering, but I do not know if I deserve the honor Picture Quote #1
