The acknowledgment of and gratitude for favors and gifts received is loved and esteemed in Heaven and on earth.

We should not have a petty regard for God's gifts, though we may and should despise our own imperfections.

May God our Lord never let me harm anyone when I cannot help him!

Pardon me, O perfections of my God, for having preferred imperfect and evil inclinations to Thee! Pardon me, O justice of my God, for having outraged Thee by my sins. Pardon me, O holiness of my God, for having so long stained Thy sight's purity by my sins. Pardon me, O mercy of my God, for having despised so long Thy mercy's voice. In deep sorrow and contrition, I cast myself at Thy feet: Have mercy on me.

We must put aside all judgment of our own, and keep the mind ever ready and prompt to obey in all things the true Spouse of Christ our Lord, our holy Mother, the hierarchical Church.

Finding God in All Things.

He who is devout to the Virgin Mother will certainly never be lost.
