I want to be only a poor friar who prays - if God sees blemishes even in the angels, can you imagine what He sees in me!

Never rise from the table without having given due thanks to the Lord. If we act in this way, we need have no fear of the wretched sin of gluttony.

Always humble yourself lovingly before God and man, because God speaks to those who are truly humble of heart, and enriches them with His gifts.

Pray, Hope, and Don't Worry

The devil is like a rabid dog tied to a chain; beyond the length of the chain he cannot seize anyone. And you: keep at a distance. If you approach too near, you let yourself be caught. Remember that the devil has only one door by which to enter the soul: the will.

Stay with me, Lord, for as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You. . .

The Lord our King will hold the door of His heart open for anyone who wants to enter for an audience at any time
