Do not let the past disturb you, just leave everything in the Sacred Heart and begin again with joy.

Before you speak, it is necessary for you to listen, for God speaks in the silence of the heart.

In vocal prayer we speak to God; in mental prayer he speaks to us. It is then that God pours Himself into us.

Perfect prayer does not consist in many words, but in the fervor of the desire which raises the heart to Jesus.

Jesus has said "Come, blessed of my Father, take the seat in the kingdom prepared for you, because I was hungry you gave me food, I was thirsty you have me drink, I was naked you clothed me, I was homeless you took me home and I was sick you visited me." And we are just doing that.

Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.

I repeat that the poor, the sufferers from leprosy, the rejected, the alcoholics, whom we serve, are beautiful people. Many of them have wonderful personalities. The experience which we have by serving them, we must pass on to people who have not had that wonderful experience.
