Feast – St. Thomas Aquinas
St. Thomas Aquinas

St. Thomas Aquinas says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“I desire people understand that their love for God is in direct proportion to the love they hold in their hearts for neighbor. You cannot say, ‘I love the Lord with my whole heart', and at the same time hold contempt in your heart for one another. This is what comprises your personal response to Heaven's call to holiness–love of God and love of neighbor. The two must be present in the heart together; if they are not, your holiness is mere pretense.”
