If you seek to carry no other crosses but those whose reason you understand, perfection is not for you.

All things must come to the soul from its roots, from where it is planted.

Patient endurance / Attaineth to all things.

It is love alone that gives worth to all things.

Her heart is full of joy with love, for in the Lord her mind is stilled. She has renounced every selfish attachment and draws abiding joy and strength from the One within. She lives not for herself, but lives to serve the Lord of Love in all, and swims across the sea of life breasting its rough waves joyfully.

God prefers your health, and your obedience, to your penance.

The feeling remains that God is on the journey, too.
