In the way of God, thoughts count very little. Love does it all.

We ought not to be weary of doing little things for the love of God, who regards not the greatness of the work, but the love with which it is performed.

There is no sweeter manner of living in the world than continuous communion with God.

Let all our employment be to know GOD: the more one knows Him, the more one desires to know Him. And as knowledge is commonly the measure of love, the deeper and more extensive our knowledge shall be, the greater will be our love: and if our love of GOD were great, we should love Him equally in pains and pleasures.

The most holy and important practice in the spiritual life is the presence of God - that is, every moment to take great pleasure that God is with you

Have courage then: make a virtue of necessity: ask of God, not deliverance from your pains, but strength to bear resolutely, for the love of Him, all that He should please, and as long as He shall please.

Are we not rude and deserve blame, if we leave Him alone, to busy ourselves about trifles, which do not please Him and perhaps offend Him? 'Tis to be feared these trifles will one day cost us dear.
