Extra ecclesiam nulla salus Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Have no fear of moving into the unknown. Simply step out fearlessly knowing that I am with you, therefore no harm can befall you; all is very, very well. Do this in complete faith and confidence. Pope John Paul II "I find great peace in thinking of the time when the Lord will call me: from life to life!" Pope John Paul II i miss him so much! John Paul the Great pray for us!

Isaiah41:13 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 "It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; he is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; he is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is he who provokes you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is he who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is he who reads in your hearts your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle. It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be grounded down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and more fraternal." -Pope John Paul II- World Youth Day, Rome 2000 "I have looked for you. Now you have come to me. And I thank you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fides_et_Ratio Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 The all-time best quote, hands down... "Faith and reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth, and God has placed in the human heart a desire to know the truth--in a word, to know himself--so that by knowing and loving God men and women may come to the fullness of truth about themselves." From the encyclical "Fides et Ratio" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
