I believe that we are conforming to the divine order and the will of Providence when we are doing even indifferent things that belong to our condition.

I would have no desire other than to accomplish thy will. Teach me to pray; pray thyself in me.

Speak, move, act in peace.

It is often our own imperfection which makes us reprove the imperfection of others; a sharp-sighted self-love of others

The Christian life is a long and continual tendency of our hearts toward that eternal goodness which we desire on earth. All our happiness consists in thirsting for it. Now this thirst is prayer. Ever desire to approach your Creator, and you will never cease to pray. Do not think it necessary to pronounce many words.

He who prays without confidence cannot hope that his prayers will be granted.

All wars are civil wars because all men are brothers... Each one owes infinitely more to the human race than to the particular country in which he was born.
