The Papal Visitor QUOTES

The Papal Visitor QUOTES

1 " I know you don’t want to stand up to the bullies, the peace-breakers, or even the demons among you. You want someone else to handle it, someone else to tell them to stop, someone else to bring the peace. And very often in your life, there will be someone else, and you’ll be able to stay in your place of peace. But other times, the peace you crave can only be found by fighting the battle, and the light you crave can only be seen by fighting the darkness. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

2 " Imagine someone is fast asleep in a very dark room. The friend who opens the curtains to let the light in will be cursed and hated. But the day had long since started, and the friend still sleeping curses the light, and prefers the darkness. In the same way, those who bring light to a dark situation will be cursed and ridiculed for their optimism and love. They will be scorned and rejected for their joy and hope. But optimism, love, hope, and joy should be pursued anyway. In all things, you must trust in the knowing your brain will never know, the feeling your heart can never reveal, and the Spirit your own soul still hasn’t even begun to explore. This is the profound gift of a firm grasp on faith. "

3 " You must trust in your inner being of light, the angel you already are. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

4 " Do not let your conscience be clouded by unknown storms. Trust in the atmosphere of spirit that breathes so calmly deep within you at all times. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

5 " It's an unholy crusade against good people everywhere, all in my name. If I had a stomach, I'd be sick to it. You see now why so many good people just give up out there? You can only take so much evil pretending to be good. You can only handle so many broken souls acting as if good people are the evil ones, before you raise your hands and claim defeat. But I want you all to understand something. There is evil happening. There are spirits from Hell demonizing. There are even wars planned, and dark judgments justified by the self-righteous fanatics. But none of that means good can't also triumph. None of that means good cannot rise up against hatred, against judgment, against the armies of Hell itself, and bring about a tidal wave of joy and love. Evil does, but good always is. "

6 " Live in the present. Tomorrow is a puzzle you can only solve with the answers you find today. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

7 " Even if it’s a really funny joke, don’t laugh if the devil’s the one telling it! "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

8 " God can only show you eternity if you are willing to let go completely of the now. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

9 " It’s on the path of simplicity that love prefers to walk. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

10 " The Creator puts life into motion, and doesn’t just sit around all day moving each and every piece this way and that on his whims. If life was just one gigantic board game, God isn’t the banker or the leader, or even a collection of all the players. God is just the one who invented the game. You can be pissed all you want when something awful or even evil happens during the game, but you have no right to go and sue Milton Bradley. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

11 " I’m of the camp that if an angel tells you one thing, and a man in ruby slippers tells you another, you go with the angel. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

12 " My friends, if there is one gift in my omniscience, it’s the knowledge I have of just how much good is out there. When I’m disappointed in my children near and far who hurt others, I am reminded of the many souls who do not hurt others. I see a smack across the face in one part of the planet at the same time as I see a thousand hugs and kisses somewhere else. Love is everywhere. And if all the forces of good were stacked up against all the forces of evil, it would be a most unfair fight. Good would always win. My dears, good will always win. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

13 " True soul pulses with a knowing every hour of the day. It does not fall asleep when the body does, and it does not rest when the mind falls off into a dream state. The truest soul within you is that part of you which you can never forget, never lose touch with, never be lost in, because it is always and forever at one with God. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

14 " When you think with your human minds and act with your human bodies, you’ll get human results left and right all the time. It’s logical! But when you think and act from your soul, when you live this life like it’s already your eternal life, you are able to do so much more. "

― Sean Patrick Brennan , The Papal Visitor

15 " It wasn’t that God didn’t know what was going on…omniscience being what it is. He just tried his best not to read too far ahead of the class. "
