Subject: [TAC] Daily Excerpt for November 02 2006
Date: October 31, 2006 08:46 pm

Today's excerpt is from St. Catherine of Genoa:

“The same thing is true of purgatory: the soul, leaving the body, and not
finding in herself that purity in which she was created, and seeing also
the hindrances which prevent her union with God, conscious also that
purgatory only can remove them, casts herself quickly and willingly
therein. And if she did not find the means ordained for her purification,
she would instantly create for herself a hell worse than purgatory, seeing
that by reason of this impediment she is hindered from approaching her
end, which is God; and this is so great an ill that in comparison with it
the soul esteems purgatory as nothing. True it is, as I have said, like
hell; and yet, in comparison with the loss of God it is as nothing."
(Life and Doctrine of St. Catherine of Genoa: Treatise on Purgatory,
Chapter VII)

God Bless.

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, pray for us!

St. Gianna Beretta Molla, pray for us!
