Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty, admire it. Life is bliss, taste it.
Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge, meet it. Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it. Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it. Life is luck, make it. Life is too precious, do not destroy it. Life is life, fight for it. ~ St Teresa of Calcutta #catholicwomen #cathoilcmotherhood #traditionalcatholic #traditionalcatholicism #traditionalcatholicfemininity #modesty #catholicism #romancatholic #marianmodesty #catholicmarriage #catholichusband #catholichusbandandwife #catholicwife #catholicfamily
Prayers for a single person for a good spouse
O Jesus, heart of all my life, in all confidence I open my heart to You to beg Your light and assistance in the important task of planning my future. Give me the light of Your grace, that I may decide wisely concerning the person who is to be my partner through life. Dearest Jesus, send me such a one whom in Your divine wisdom You judge best suited to be united with me in marriage. May their character reflect some of the traits of Your own Sacred Heart. May they be upright, loyal, pure, sincere and noble, so that with united efforts and with pure and unselfish love we both may strive to perfect ourselves in soul and body, as well as the children it may please You to entrust to our care. Bless our friendship before marriage, that sin may have no part in it. May our mutual love bind us so closely, that our future home may ever be most like Your own at Nazareth.
O Mary Immaculate, sweet Mother of the young, to your special care I entrust the decision I am to make as to my future spouse. You are my guiding Star! Direct me to the person with whom I can best cooperate in doing God's Holy Will, with whom I can live in peace, love and harmony in this life, and attain to eternal joys in the next.
Amen. #catholicwomen #cathoilcmotherhood #traditionalcatholic #traditionalcatholicism #traditionalcatholicfemininity #modesty #catholicism #romancatholic #marianmodesty #catholicmarriage #catholichusband #catholichusbandandwife #catholicwife #catholicfamily

“Mother, look at this cross; oh! how beautiful it is! It has been my whole happiness during my life, and I advise you also to make it yours.” ― Saint Kateri Tekakwitha To Her Spiritual Mother Anastasia. I love the simple honesty, passion of faith and devotion of Saint Kateri. Worldly things really didn’t interest her, it was her spiritual blessings that she held most dear, non more so than her simple wooden cross of our beloved Jesus.

Prayer to Our Lady of Lourdes
Blessed, most pure Virgin, you chose to manifest yourself shining with life, sweetness and beauty, in the Grotto of Lourdes.
To the child, St. Bernadette, you revealed yourself, "I am the Immaculate Conception."
And now, Immaculate Virgin, Mother of Mercy, Healer of the Sick, Comforter of the Afflicted, you know our wants, our troubles, our sufferings. Look upon us with mercy.
By your appearance in the Grotto of Lourdes, it became a privileged sanctuary from which you dispense your favors.
Many have obtained the cure of their infirmities, both spiritual and physical. I come, therefore, with confidence in your maternal intercession.
Obtain for us, O loving Mother, this special request. Our Lady of Lourdes, Mother of Christ, pray for us.
Obtain from your Divine Son my special request if it be God's will.
Amen..

Since God often sends us his inspirations by means of his angels, we ought frequently to offer him our aspirations through the same channel. ... Call on them and honor them frequently, and ask their help in all your affairs, temporal as well as spiritual.~ St. Francis de Sales. Remembering all your trials there is our guardian angel appointed by God right by your side, as reminded by St. Basil the Great ‘Beside each believer stands an Angel as protector and shepherd, leading him to life’Artwork : Guardian Angel by Sandra Guck #catholicwomen #cathoilcmotherhood #traditionalcatholic #traditionalcatholicism #traditionalcatholicfemininity #modesty #catholicism #romancatholic #marianmodesty #catholicmarriage #catholichusband #catholichusbandandwife #catholicwife #catholicfamily
“When lovers are together, they spend hours and hours repeating the same thing: ‘I love you!’ What is missing in the people who think the rosary monotonous is Love; and everything that is not done for love is worthless.”~ Sister Lúcia of Fatima. The greatest whispers of love is that of the rosary, reciting the rosary is saying with your heart, mind and soul ‘I love you’ to our Lord Jesus and his beloved Mother, no greater love can ever be. #catholicwomen #cathoilcmotherhood #traditionalcatholic #traditionalcatholicism #traditionalcatholicfemininity #modesty #catholicism #romancatholic #marianmodesty #catholicmarriage #catholichusband #catholichusbandandwife #catholicwife #catholicfamily
Every woman in the world was made to be a mother either physically or spiritually. Here we are not talking of physical motherhood, we are speaking of spiritual motherhood. A women in professional life is happy when she has the occasion to be feminine. The man is the guardian of nature, but the woman is the custodian of life. Therefore in whatever she does, she must have some occasion to be kind and merciful to others […] The women who does not fail in the professional life, is the woman, therefore, who manifests this feminine quality that we call equity.

But they mustn’t forget that the secret of married happiness lies in everyday things, not in daydreams. It lies in finding the hidden joy of coming home in the evening, in affectionate embraces, in the everyday work in which the whole family cooperates. But most importantly to pray together, not just pray for each other but to bring God into the centre of the marriage by praying together. Through this prayer will God guard that marriage as it is precious to him ~ Saint Josemaria Escriva Artwork: Prayer by Ron DiCianni #catholicwomen #cathoilcmotherhood #traditionalcatholic #traditionalcatholicism #traditionalcatholicfemininity #modesty #catholicism #romancatholic #marianmodesty #catholicmarriage #catholichusband #catholichusbandandwife #catholicwife #catholicfamily
