The Resurrection is the victory Christ places before us as our goal, the kingdom which we win by uniting to His Sacrifice. The Resurrection is the Life that must define our lives if we want a part in it.

The Daily Decade 2, No. 91

Christ promises us no servant is greater than his master - our wage is our imitation of the master we choose, whether Christ who suffers at the hands of the world for eternal reward, or Satan, who rewards worldly thought and action, but is punished in eternity.

We seek an imperishable crown in the eternal Kingdom; do not let your heart be troubled by worldly concerns or seek your salvation in politics and scandal: it is not there.

The Daily Decade 2, No. 88

We will not find the Kingdom that is not of this World if we only seek Our King amonng those things that are of the world.

We are all crucified in the end upon the Cross of our own making. We need to choose on which side of Christ we choose to suffer: accepting our hardships on His right hand or reviling Him for them on His left.

We worship God in spirit and in truth when our worship, be it liturgical or mundane, is done out of love rather than merely obedience.

The Daily Decade 2, No. 84

We can plead ignorance when we excuse our sins, but we cannot forget it was at the hands of the ignorant that Our Lord suffered His worst tortures.

The Daily Decade 2, No. 83

God will never send us into battle without the weapons to win the war being waged against us. We only need to pick them up.
