Thought of the Day August 8, 2015

By 10:52 AM

“A man who governs his passions is master of the world. We must either command them or be enslaved to them. It is better to be the hammer than the anvil.” (St. Dominic, Founder of the Friars Preachers, Confessor; Memorial – August 8)  For him to say this means that he embraced it in his life. It shows, again, how even the saints struggled against the same things we do. Because they drew their strength from their relationship with Christ, so must we in our daily struggles. Victory is not only possible but attainable.
