Wounds of Christ:

The wounds of Christ signify that we need a Christian sense of intimacy, to be passionately involved in the lives of people…and in the suffering of the world. Only when we are willing to love by way of suffering love will the human wounds of the present be healed in the glory of Christ.

********************************************************************************

If the Lord at the moment of my death reproves me for being too kind to sinners, I will answer, "My dear Jesus, if it is a fault to be too kind to sinners, it is a fault I learned from you, for you never scolded anyone who came to you seeking mercy."

- St. Leonard of Port Maurice (1676-1751)
