We are at Jesus' disposal. If he wants you to be sick in bed, if he wants you to proclaim His work in the street, if he wants you to clean the toilets all day, that's all right, everything is all right. We must say, "I belong to you. You can do whatever you like." And this ..is our strength, and this is the joy of the Lord.

Our poverty is freedom. This is our poverty - the giving up our freedom to dispose of things, to choose, to possess

If only one little unhappy child is made happy with the love of Jesus,...will it not be worth...giving all for that?

Be faithful in little things, for in them your strength lies. To the good God nothing is little, because He is so great and we are so small.

I know I would not be able to work one week if it were not for that continual force coming from Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

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

Let me thus praise You in the way You love best: by shining on those around me. Let me preach You without preaching, not by words, but by my example, by the catching force, the sympathetic influence of what I do, the evident fullness of the love my heart bears to You. Amen.
