All the sins of your life seem to be rising up against you. Don't give up hope! On the contrary, call your holy mother Mary, with the faith and abandonment of a child. She will bring peace to your soul.

We all must have the faith of children, but the doctrine of theologians.

To defend his purity, Saint Francis of Assisi rolled in the snow, Saint Benedict threw himself into a thorn bush, and Saint Bernard plunged into an icy pond... You - what have you done?

You go to pray; to become a bonfire, a living flame, giving light and heat.

Love our Lady. And she will obtain abundant grace to help you conquer in your daily struggle.

When you see the storm coming, if you seek safety in that firm refuge which is Mary, there will be no danger of your wavering or going down.

Don't judge without having heard both sides. Even persons who think themselves virtuous very easily forget this elementary rule of prudence.
