July 23 – Saint Bridget of Sweden

Beloved Lord Jesus, Saint Bridget of Sweden first served You as a wife and mother, taking good care of her family, helping her Church, and getting involved in her community.  After becoming a widow, she began to receive revelations about Your passion and suffering.  I ask her to intercede for the widows and widowers in my family, church and neighborhood, that they become more fully aware of Your closeness.  Show them their purpose in life and inspire them to stay actively involved.  Help them to realize how important they are to You and let their value become known to all those around them.  Saint Bridget of Sweden, pray for us.  Amen.

QUOTES by Saint Bridget of Sweden

I beg of Thee, O my Savior, to inflame in our hearts the desire to tend toward perfection in all our acts, and to extinguish in us the concupiscence of the flesh and the ardor of worldly desires. Amen.

True wisdom, then, consists in works, not in great talents, which the world admires. For the wise in the world’s estimation … are the foolish who set at naught the will of God and know not how to control their passions.

The world would have peace if only men of politics would follow the Gospels.
