There is hunger for ordinary bread, and there is hunger for love, for kindness, for thoughtfulness, and this is the great poverty that makes people suffer so much.

Let us not use bombs and guns to overcome the world. Let us use love and compassion. Peace begins with a smile.

All we do our prayers our work our suffering is for Jesus. Our life has no other reason or motivation.

If you are discouraged it is a sign of pride, because it shows you trust in your own powers. Never bother about other people's opinions. Be humble and you will never be disturbed. Remember St. Aloysius, who said he would continue to play billiards even if he knew he was going to die. Do you play well? Sleep well? Eat well? These are duties. Nothing is small for God.

The point is to do something, however small, and show you care through your actions by giving your time.

Death is nothing else but going home to God, the bond of love will be unbroken for all eternity.

If our bones were not sending whispers of doubt to our hearts, there would be no need for prayer at all.
