Select Alphonsus Liguori Quotations
Your God is ever beside you - indeed, He is even within you.
Alphonsus Liguori

Alphonsus Liguori

Alphonsus Liguori
Ask those who love Him with a sincere love, and they will tell you that they find no greater or prompter relief amid the troubles of their life than in loving conversation with their Divine Friend.
