"I Am the Light of the World."

I love to read quotes of the saints. They provide such fruit for meditation. Here is one from St. Catherine of Siena. It makes me think of something an artist might say. 

"It is only through shadows that one comes to know the light." Prayer 24

Goodness shines brightly against evil. Consider the heroism of Irene Sendler and other courageous men and women who fought the Nazis.

Think of the early Roman martyrs who faced the savage beasts and the even more savage crowds in the Roman Coliseum.

It only takes one candle to push back the darkest night.
