A collection of scriptural meditations from Saints and Fathers of the Church.

Keep close to Jesus.

Ignorance of the scriptures is a precipice and a deep abyss.

Praise God continually with spiritual hymns and always remain in meditation and in this way you will be able to bear the burden of the temptations that come upon you. A traveler who is carrying a heavy load pauses from time to time and draws in deep breaths; it makes the journey easier and the burden lighter.

It is better to eat meat and drink wine and not to eat the flesh of one's brethren through slander.

Was there ever anyone of any breeding who dared to speak the name of Holy Mary, and being questioned, did not immediately add, 'the Virgin'? For by such added names the positive proofs of merit are apparent... And to the Holy Mary, Virgin is invariably added, for that Holy Woman remains undefiled.

Reading the scriptures is a great safeguard against sin.

A dog is better than I am, for he has love and he does not judge.

A man is neither saved nor lost by the place he is in, but is saved or lost by his deeds. Neither a holy place nor a holy state is of use to him who does not fulfill the commandments of the Lord.
