The devil fears hearts on fire with love of God.

The soul is in God and God in the soul, just as the fish is in the sea and the sea in the fish.

O Trinity, eternal Trinity! Fire, abyss of love... Was it necessary that you should give Even the Holy Trinity as food for souls?... You gave us not only your Word Through the Redemption and in the Eucharist, But you also gave yourself In the fullness of love for your creature.

We've been deceived by the thought that we would be more pleasing to God in our own way than in the way God has given us.

To join two things together there must be nothing between them or there cannot be a perfect fusion. Now realize that this is how God wants our soul to be, without any selfish love of ourselves or of others in between, just as God loves us without anything in between.

Do not presume to choose your own way of serving instead of the one I have made for you.

all the vices are seasoned with pride just as the virtues are seasoned and enlivened by charity.
