The very recent development of tools for viewing documents, when combined with 2,000 years of Christian writings, provides a powerful source of wisdom for the Christian life and a mysterious link to the Saints who have gone before us......

"The desire for God is written in the human heart, because man is created by God and for God; and God never ceases to draw man to himself. Only in God will he find the truth and happiness he never stops searching for:

The dignity of man rests above all on the fact that he is called
to communion with God. This invitation to converse with
God is addressed to man as soon as he comes into being. For
if man exists, it is because God has created him through love,
and through love continues to hold him in existence. He
cannot live fully according to truth unless he freely
acknowledges that love and entrusts himself to his creator."
(From The Catechism of the Catholic Church and Gaudium et Spes)

"Man is placed above all creatures, and not beneath them, and he cannot be satisfied or content except in something greater than himself. Greater than himself there is nothing but Myself, the Eternal God. Therefore I alone can satisfy him, and, because he is deprived of this satisfaction by his guilt, he remains in continual torment and pain. Weeping follows pain, and when he begins to weep, the wind strikes the tree of self-love, which he has made the principle of all his being." Dialogue of Saint Catherine of Siena (1347-1380), who was declared a Doctor of the Church on October 4, 1970. Courtesy Christian Classics Electronics Library.

When I came to you, brethren, I did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God in lofty words or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness and in much fear and trembling; and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away. But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages...   1Corinthians 2
