If you are silent, be silent out of love. If you speak, speak out of love.
Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a teardrop.
To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek him the greatest adventure; to find him, the greatest human achievement.
Unhappy is the soul enslaved by the love of anything that is mortal.
Give her two red roses, each with a note. The first note says For the woman I love and the second, For my best friend.
God's love is unconditional. Be sure that yours is too!
To seek the greatest good is to live well, and to live well is nothing other than to love God with the whole heart, the whole soul, and the whole mind: It is therefore obvious that this love must be kept whole and uncorrupt, that is temperance; it should not be overcome with difficulties, that is fortitude, it must not be subservient to anything else, that is justice; it must discriminate among things so as not to be deceived by falsity or fraud, that is prudence.
We count on God's mercy for our past mistakes, on God's love for our present needs, on God's sovereignty for our future.
Watch, O Lord, with those who wake, or watch or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend your sick ones, O Lord Jesus Christ; rest your weary ones; bless your dying ones; soothe your suffering ones; pity your afflicted ones; shield your joyous ones; and all for your love's sake. Amen.
In order to discover the character of people we have only to observe what they love.
Your persistent longing is your persistent voice. But when love grows cold, the heart grows silent. Burning love is the outcry of the heart! If you are filled with longing all the time, you will keep crying out, and if your love perseveres, your cry will be heard without fail.
What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.
Love and say it with your life.
You don't love in your enemies what they are, but what you would have them become by your prayers.
Love God, and do what you like.
Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul.
He who is filled with love is filled with God himself.
There can only be two basic loves... the love of God unto the forgetfulness of self, or the love of self unto the forgetfulness and denial of God.
The measure of love is to love without measuring.
Love has reasons that reason knows not.
Therefore once for all this short command is given to you. 'Love and do what you will.' If you keep silent, keep silent by love; if you speak, speak by love; if you correct, correct by love; if you pardon, pardon by love: let love be rooted in you, and from the root nothing but good can grow.
There is no love without hope, no hope without love, and neither hope nor love without faith.
Trust the past to the mercy of God, the present to His love, and the future to His providence.
