A joyful heart is like the sunshine of God's love, the hope of eternal happiness.

Each time anyone comes in contact with us, they must become different and better people because of having met us. We must radiate God's love.

We learn humility through accepting humiliations cheerfully.

We are not here to be successful, we are here to be FAITHFUL

Our vow of chastity is nothing but our undivided love for Christ in chastity, then we proceed to the freedom of poverty-poverty is nothing but freedom. And that total surrender is obedience. If I belong to God, if I belong to Christ, then he must be able to use me. That is obedience. Then we give wholehearted service to the poor. That is service. They complete each other. That is our life.

I think that a person who is attached to riches, who lives with the worry of riches, is actually very poor. If this person puts his money at the service of others, then he is rich, very rich.

We must become holy, not because we want to feel holy, but because Christ must be able to live his life fully in us.
