A Daily Quote to Inspire Your Catholic Faith

“Today a great silence reigns on earth, a great silence and a great stillness. A great stillness because the King is asleep. The earth trembled and is still because God has fallen asleep in the flesh and has raised up all who have slept since the world began . . . ‘I order you, O sleeper, to awake. I did not create you to be a prisoner in hell. Rise from the dead, for I am the life of the dead.’”
– Liturgy of the Hours, Matins for Holy Saturday, From an ancient homily for Holy Saturday
