If the angels were capable of envy, they would envy us for two things: one is the receiving of Holy Communion, and the other is suffering.

A disobedient soul will win no victory, even if the Lord Jesus himself, in person, were to hear its confession.

My daughter...why do you not tell me about everything that concerns you, even the smallest details? Tell Me about everything, and know that this will give Me great joy. I answered, But You know about everything, Lord." And Jesus replied to me, "Yes I do know; but you should not excuse yourself with the fact that I know, but with childlike simplicity talk to Me about everything, for my ears and heart are inclined towards you, and your words are dear to Me.

Nothing is difficult for the humble.

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

It is You Jesus, stretched out on the cross, who gives me strength and are always close to the suffering soul. Creatures will abandon a person in his suffering, but You, O Lord, are faithful.

True love is measured by the thermometer of suffering.
