To prove to Our Lord how much you love Him, learn to forget yourself always … and be very faithful to all your duties and all your resolutions. Live by will rather than by imagination. If you feel your weakness, God wants you to make use of it in order to make acts of the will which you will offer Him as so many acts of love … He so loves you and He so wants you for His own, whatever may be the path whereby you must follow Him here below.
– St. Elizabeth of the Trinity
