I thank God for this illness and these physical discomforts, because I have the time to converse with the Lord Jesus.

The greatest misery does not stop Me from uniting Myself to a soul, but where there is pride, I am not there.

Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.

O You Who are hidden, body, soul and divinity, Under the fragile form of bread, You are my life from Whom springs an abundance of graces; And, for me, You surpass the delights of Heaven.

Pure love ... knows that only one thing is needed to please God: to do even the smallest things out of great love - love, and always love.

I thank God for this illness and these physical discomforts, because I have the time to converse with the Lord Jesus.

Every morning during meditation, I prepare myself for the whole day's struggle. Holy Communion assures me that I will win the victory; and so it is. I fear the day when I do not receive Holy Communion. This bread of the Strong gives me all the strength I need to carry on my mission and the courage to do whatever the Lord asks of me. The courage and strength that are in me are not of me, but of Him who lives in me - it is the Eucharist.
