Consoling Thoughts From Father Faber
There are no persons judged with more unfeeling rigour than those who make profession of a devout life. But they must have their faults and imperfections, they must have the less lovely stages of the spiritual life to pass through; and it must be their consolation that many a time when men blame them, Jesus does not; and the very imperfections of their young love are dear to Him, while the sage criticisms and pompous moderation of their censors are hateful in His eyes.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
