St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
“The accidents of life separate us from our dearest friends, but let us not despair.
God is like a looking glass in which souls see each other.
The more we are united to Him by love,
the nearer we are to those who belong to Him.”
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

Still Life with Pumpkins, by Luis Egidio Meléndez, 1765/1775
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;
For His lovingkindness is everlasting.
-Psalm 118:1 NASB
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
John 15:13-16
