In books we seek God; in prayer we find him. Prayer is the key which opens God's heart.

May the Mother of Jesus and our Mother, always smile on your spirit, obtaining for it, from her Most Holy Son, every heavenly blessing.

Be comforted with this divine thought that your spiritual and physical pains are the test of the Divine Will.

In the spiritual life, you must take one step forward each day in a vertical line, from the bottom up.

Stop entertaining those vain fears. Remember it is not feeling which constitutes guilt but the consent to such feelings. Only the free will is capable of good or evil. But when the will sighs under the trial of the tempter and does not will what is presented to it, there is not only no fault but there is virtue.

I feel a great desire to abandon myself with greater trust to the Divine Mercy and to place my hope in God alone.

We must hide our tears from the One who sends them, from the One who has shed tears Himself and continues to shed them every day because of mans' ingratitude.
