We must love prayer. It widens the heart to the point of making it capable of containing the gift that God makes of himself. Ask and seek, and your heart will be widened to welcome him and to keep him within itself.

In the poor we meet Jesus in his most distressing disguises.

Joy is prayer. Joy is strength. Joy is love. Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls. God loves a cheerful giver. She gives most who gives with joy.

I know i am touching the living body of Christ in the broken bodies of the hungry and the suffering.

I would rather make mistakes in kindness and compassion than work miracles in unkindness and hardness.

If you have not the experience, ask. There is no shame in asking, but do not pretend you know when you don't.

Never Let Anyone Come to You Without Coming Away Better and Happier
