Now I see that God prefers to work through intermediaries - Mary and the saints. . . He wants us to pray through Mary and not only directly.

If there is a God, there is a map. If God has a map, his map is the true map.

Gratitude is the seedbed of joy.

Humility is not an exaggeratedly low opinion of yourself. Humility is self-forgetfulness.
