Quotes referenced:
“In short, devotion is simply a spiritual activity and liveliness by means of which Divine Love works in us, and causes us to work briskly and lovingly; and just as charity leads us to a general practice of all God's Commandments, so devotion leads us to practise them readily and diligently.” - St. Francis De Sales
“The weeks would pass, and the rhythm of the year of the Church, with all its moods and rich meanings - the happy expectancy of Advent, the fulfillment of Christmas, the sorrow of Lent and Holy Week, the glory of Easter and Pentecost - would become a powerful force in our daily life. In this ‘school of living,’ Holy Mother Church teaches her children how to celebrate. In it, one learns how to turn family days such as birthdays, anniversaries, baptisms, weddings and even funerals into feasts celebrated in the Lord.” - Maria von Trapp, Around the Year with the von Trapp Family
Second quote from the von Trapp book referenced is too big and surpasses character limit. Quote can be found on our Instagram "!" highlight :)
"For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, virtue with knowledge, knowledge with self-control, self-control with endurance, endurance with devotion, devotion with mutual affection, mutual affection with love. If these are yours and increase in abundance, they will keep you from being idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ." - 2 Peter 1:5-8
"Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." - Philippians 4:8
