O True, Gentle Patience

“Walk as children of the light”
(Ephesians 5:8)

Parents, leaders, and educators, we have a mission, a duty to lead children's souls toward the Light which will be their guide and their happiness. In order to illuminate the way that lies before each one of us, once a week we invite you to discover some of the words of certain wisemen and witnesses, measuring their worth by the words of St. Thomas Aquinas: “Do not consider the one who speaks, but whatever good you hear from him, confide it to your memory.” (from The Sixteen Ways to Acquire the Treasure of Knowledge by St. Thomas). Happy reading!

“I am He Who loves few words and many acts.”

O true, gentle Patience! You are that virtue which is never conquered but triumphs always… You dispel hatred and rancor from the heart. You dissipate bitterness towards one’s neighbor. You relieve the soul of all its sorrows. Through you the heaviest burdens of innumerable tribulations become light. You change displeasure into gentleness.”
