From the Prayer Journal of Fr. Jack Tolley

9/9/2019

 
Friends, here are some quotations I placed in my Prayer Journals over the years.
I thought you might find them as helpful as I have. 
Blessings, love, and hugs,
Fr. Jack.
 
" Deliver us from evil." Evil lies in despair and bitterness, in a lack of gratitude,
and in a posture of arrogance.
(Kenneth J. Dale)
 
"If the only prayer you say in your entire life
is, Thank you! that would suffice."
(Meister Eckhart)
 
Colossians 3:12 - As God's chosen ones, holy and beloved,
clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.
 
"Who's in and who's out doesn't concern you...
all you need to think about is God has mercy for all."
(Lindsey Melden)
 
"What is done in love is done well."
(Vincent Van Gogh)
 
"Anytime we come clean with God, Church is in session."
(Rev. Patrick Gannon)
 
"Let us never forget that authentic power is service."
(RC Pope)
 
"We all face times of consolation and loneliness and desolation.
But we never face these times alone.  God is with us."
​(St. Ignatius of Loyola)
