All for the Eucharist; nothing for me

Since God wishes it - there is nothing to be done. . . Why should you thus torment yourself? Get rid of whatever He shows you to be an obstacle to His love, for His only desire is that you should live stripped of all that is not Himself.

We must never be discouraged or give way to anxiety. . . but ever have recourse to the adorable Heart of Jesus.

Do not distress yourself on account of any distaste or dryness you experience in God's service. He wills that you should serve Him fervently and constantly it is true, but without any other help than simple faith, and thus your love will be more disinterested, and your service the more pleasing to Him.

Until we have acquired genuine prayer, we are like people teaching children to begin to walk.

Are you making no progress in prayer? Then you need only offer God the prayers which the Savior has poured out for us in the sacrament of the altar. Offer God His fervent love in reparation for your sluggishness.

Crosses, contempt, sorrows and afflictions are the real treasures of the lovers of Jesus Christ crucified
