Make this simple rule the guide of your life: to have no will but God's.

No more restless uncertainties, no more anxious desires, no more impatience at the place we are in; for it is God who has placed us there, and who holds us in his arms. Can we be unsafe where he has placed us?

It is better to die than to tell a lie

Let us often think of our own infirmities, and we shall become indulgent toward those of others.

There are two principal points of attention necessary for the preservation of this constant spirit of prayer which unites us with God; we must continually seek to cherish it, and we must avoid everything that tends to make us lose it.

Speak, move, act in peace.

To just read the Bible, attend church, and avoid “big” sins-is this passionate, wholehearted love for God?
