How truly blessed we shall be if at the price of even very great sacrifices we shall have made God known and loved by one more soul!

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

He who has Jesus has everything.

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.

It fills me with joy to realize that I can lay down my life daily for God, that I can sacrifice it willingly for Him. I may not be a martyr for the faith, but I can be a martyr of charity.

We may not understand His Will for us in time, but in eternity the veil will be drawn and we shall see that He acted only for our happiness.

Let us realize that we are sinners and have much to explate, while others less culpable than we are suffer more than we do.
