Catholic Diocese Of Joliet

Bishop Conlon talks about one of St. Bernard of Clairveux's sermons, the main message which concentrates on thoughts. If our thoughts come from our own heart, it will probably be a bad thought. A good thought -- one that comes from the bridegroom (Jesus) -- then it will be inspired from God. So when we have meditations and reflections, we need to make sure they come from God and from the Word of God -- meaning the Scriptures.
