My prayers are just an outpouring of gratitude for the assurance of that most completely desired Will of God, which will seem all the more desirable in all that is ahead.

The more I reflect on the graces I have received, the more they astonish me and make me tremble.

If we love Jesus, we shall be loved in return by Him, and that is perfect happiness.

He will never let the trial surpass the strength He gives you, and at the very moment you think yourself overwhelmed by sorrow, He will lift you up and give you peace.

Strengthen in us, O God, the work You have begun in us.

We are entirely in the care of Divine Providence, and it is very sweet to remain so in peace. The Cross is never lacking; may it be our consolation.

Let us bear our cross and leave it to God to determine the length and the weight.
