“Love is the Cross, and the Cross is Love.”

Love is a universe of its own, comprising all time and space.

Even now I know it: yes, all my hopes will be fulfilled… yes… the Lord will work wonders for me which will surpass infinitely my immeasurable desires.

How happy I am to see myself as imperfect and to be in need of God’s mercy.

A word or a smile is often enough to put fresh life in a despondent soul.

True charity consists in putting up with all one’s neighbors fault’s; never being surprised by his weakness, and being inspired by the least of his virtues.

Love consumes us only in the measure of our self-surrender.

Perfection consists in doing His will, in being that which He wants us to be.

The country in which I live is not my native country, that lies elsewhere, and it must always be the center of my longings.

What a joy to remember that she is our Mother! Since she loves us and knows our weakness, what have we to fear?

Life is only a dream: soon, we shall awaken. And what joy! The greater our sufferings, the more limitless our glory. Oh! do not let us waste the trial Jesus sends.

Jesus does not demand great actions from us, but simply surrender and gratitude.

It isn’t enough to love; we must prove it.

The value of life does not depend upon the place we occupy. It depends upon the way we occupy that place.

Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what you want me to be and becoming that person.

I want to shine like a little candle before His altar.

For me, prayer is a surge of the heart; it is a simple look turned toward heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love, embracing both trial and joy.

We cannot give our hearts to God and keep our bodies for ourselves.

God never denies us our hearts desire except to give us something better.

Enrich your soul in the great goodness of God: The Father is your table, the Son is your food, and the Holy Spirit waits on you and then makes His dwelling in you.

Love consists not in feeling great things but in having great detachment and in suffering for the Beloved.

Wives don’t need a good provider, they need a Godly man who will help them trust in The Provider – God!!

I want to surrender to the feelings and shapes of words and not stop until I am clearly heard by myself and my God.

He who has God finds he is lacking nothing.

Faith is like a bright ray of sun light. It enables us to see God in all things as well as all things in God.
