|
Thomas Hood
|
|
| "And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of
perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which
also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ
dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in
psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to
the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the
Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him." | |

| "Be charitable before wealth makes thee covetous." | |
|
Sir Thomas Browne
|
|
| "Be charitable in your thoughts, in your speech and in your actions.
Be charitable in your judgments, in your attitudes and in your prayers.
Think charitably of your friends, your neighbors, your relatives and even
your enemies. And if there be those whom you can help in a material way,
do so in a quiet, friendly, neighborly way, as if it were the most common
and everyday experience for you. Tongues of men and angels, gifts of
prophecy and all mysteries and all knowledge are as nothing without
charity." | |
|
Patrick Joseph, Cardinal Hayes

| "The most unproductive, empty, fruitless fellow in the world is the
man with a barren heart. Happiness can never reach him, for nothing good

Contrast this man with his barren heart with the human that plays the game
of life fairly and honestly and is willing to make others happy by his own
sacrifices." | |

man to virtuous deeds is charity; and your prohibiting the forbidden is
