Happy Saturday! A beautiful day to celebrate two saints along with the Blessed Virgin Mary. May God be praised. What follows is for your reflection:

In order to avoid discord, never contradict anyone except in case of sin or some danger to a neighbor.
(St Louis IX of France)

All who undertake to teach must be endowed with deep love, the greatest patience, and, most of all, profound humility. They must perform their work with earnest zeal. Then through their humble prayers, the Lord will find them worthy to become fellow workers with him in the cause of truth.
(St Joseph Calasanz)

The Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name. 
(Lk 1:49)

WHOEVER EXALTS HIMSELF WITH BE HUMBLED; BUT WHOEVER HUMBLES HIMSELF WILL BE EXALTED.
(Mt 23:12)
