A quote from Catherine:
Infinite is the love God bears to souls
who repose in his protection.
It's Valentines Day and I'm sitting in the commons of a local college as I wait for the next retreatant. Our reflection today is on compassion and mercy. The quote today is more in keeping with the day than the silly valentines cards being sent around. As one student said, "Valentines is just a material day. It's not that important in my life. " And so it should be. The true Valentine is the one who shows God's love to others. To whom do you show God's love? To whom do you show God's mercy?
And how do you live in God's protection? Do you put on the cloak of love as you start your day? Is your life a witness of God's protection? It's a great day to reflect on the true meaning of love-not the flowers, candy, chocolate and fancy dinner out.
Happy Valentine's Day!
