“True, I am in love with suffering, but I do not know if I deserve the honor.”

So with that will prompt and prepared to serve all those whom I perceive to be servants of my Lord, I will speak of three things with simplicity and love as if I were speaking to my own soul.

Love ought to show itself in deeds more than in words.

Receive, Lord, all my liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will.

For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who disbelieve, no amount of proof is sufficient.

It is not hard to obey when we love the one whom we obey.

One must wage war against his predominant passion and not retreat until, with God’s help, he has been victorious.

God inclines to shower His graces upon us, but our perverted will is a barrier to His generosity.

Laugh and grow strong.

If anyone asks you for something that you believe would be injurious to him, refuse, but in such a manner as not to lose his good-will.

All the things in this world are gifts of God, created for us, to be the means by which we can come to know him better, love him more surely, and serve him more faithfully.

For those who love, nothing is too difficult, especially when it is done for the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We must put aside all judgment of our own, and keep the mind ever ready and prompt to obey in all things the true Spouse of Christ our Lord, our holy Mother, the hierarchical Church.

Do not put faith in constant happiness, and fear most when all smiles upon you.

We ought even to hold as a fixed principle that what I see white I believe to be black, if the superior authorities define it to be so.

Spiritual infirmities such as tepidity are caused, not only by chills but also by fevers, that is, by excessive zeal.

We should always be disposed to believe that that which appears white is really black, if the hierarchy of the Church so decides.

Not everyone in your life deserves a second chance.

You deserve to live the life you want to live, not the life others expect you to live.

Great people grab everything they deserve by the balls. No need to ask for permission when you know you deserve it.

Keep your goals for yourself. Not everyone deserves access to yourself.

You deserve to live the life you want to live, not the life others expect you to live.

You deserve the love you’re looking for and love will find you.

You deserve to be alive to see the incredible things you will do in life.

Let Go. They don’t deserve you. They never did, and they never will.
