Obedient people never trust in themselves.

Everything comes from love, all is ordained for the salvation of man, God does nothing without this goal in mind.

Lord, take me from myself and give me to yourself.

What is it you want to change? Your hair, your face, your body? Why? For God is in love with all those things and he might weep when they are gone.

Make yourself a "capacity" and I will make myself a "torrent."

To a brave man, good and bad luck are like his left and right hand. He uses both.

This my goodness does to endow the souls of the just more fully with spiritual riches when for my love they are stripped of material goods because they have renounced the world and all its pleasures and even their own will. These are the ones who fatten their souls, enlarging them in the abyss of my charity. Then I become their spiritual provider. The Holy Spirit becomes their servant.
