Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrows keep you Human,
Failures keep you Humble,
Success keeps you Glowing,
But Only God Keeps You Going!

The heart finds blessings in small gifts of gentle beauty, assurance in warm, peaceful hours of rest, finds joy and true contentment always nearby, for the heart knows  simple things are best.

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. - Leo Buscaglia

Crux Sancti patris Benedicti Crux sacra sit mihi lux! Nunquam draco sit mihi dux! Vade retro Satana! Nunquam suade mihi vana! Sunt mala quae libas. Ipse venena bibas!

A Prayer to St. Jude for Hope

God of hope, come to me. Help me to know that your hope is alive in me as I offer kindness, forgiveness, and tenderness to others.

I seek the inner calm that comes from trusting in you. Give me the courage to be aware of your healing presence.

May I trust that St. Jude walks with me in times of trouble, and intercedes on my behalf.

St. Jude, fill my heart with hope.

Amen.
