Whatever our religion, we know that if we really want to love, we must first learn to forgive before anything else.

Communion with Christ gives us our strength, our joy, and our love.

This is the meaning of true love, to give until it hurts.

Everything starts from prayer. Without asking God for love, we cannot possess love and still less are we able to give it to others. Just as people today are speaking so much about the poor but they do not know or talk to the poor, we too cannot talk so much about prayer and yet not know how to pray.

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

Jesus said love one another. He didn't say love the whole world.

If our poor die of hunger, it is not because God does not care for them. Rather, it is because neither you nor I are generous enough. It is because we are not instruments of love in the hands of God. We do not recognize Christ when once again He appears to us in the hungry man, in the lonely woman, in the child who is looking for a place to get warm.
