Far, much easier to see physical damage, than liver damage. "
Prof. Dr. Berthold Anton Pareira, O.Carm (1939-2021)
Of the many questions I have asked myself, nothing has moved me more than a developing puzzle, confident and proud of its progress, turning away from God in such great numbers. It is incomprehensible that in our day we are faced with great progress on many fronts with rampant plague, disgrace and denial of God. How can the image of God be so dark that many are no longer touched by it? Is this just their fault? Or is it now a duty for us to let it shine again in a brighter light in the world, and may we have hope that a study of the concept of God will at least alleviate this greatest need? "From a speech commemorating the founding of the Catholic University of Nijmegen in 1932
Blessed Titus Brandsma (1881-1942) |
We are not called to do big, flashy, and lively things in public life. It would contradict the simplicity of how we (Carmelites) want to practice it. But it is our job to do ordinary things in great ways. Meaning: with pure intention and commitment of our whole personality. We are not asking to be at the forefront and to be praised for achievements that people in the world tend to think about. We want to stand out for our simplicity and sincerity. "

Mysticism is the total encounter between man and God and God and man. This is nothing completely new, but the intensity of God's presence within each of us ... God, the object of our love, can completely occupy our spiritual power and force us to turn to Him. "
Titus Brandsma (1881-1942)
“…… With whom you deal on a daily basis, you cannot escape judgment. Even though not a word is said, you can feel how other people feel about you. A person will try to adapt to his environment, and if that is not possible, to live together becomes torture, as well as in his daily relationship with the Savior. You become more sensitive to your likes and dislikes ..... "

God did all He could for me; Now it's up to me to do my best, yes, everything for Him. "
