Have courage - be patient with yourself, the spirituality of gentleness

I often find quotes from St Frances de Sales very encouraging, he gives very gentle advice as opposed to the Desert Fathers, St John of the Cross or St Josemaria who I like for their bluntness. 

His is the spirituality of gentleness. 

Good reminder for us all that no mattter how things are going, everyday and every moment is a fresh start. We can grow so frustrated with our habitual sins, but we need to have courage, to “Take heart” instead of being disheartened so we can continue the race, fighting the good fight one step at a time
