Always believe in Love, despite every passing thing: If God seems to sleep in your heart, do not awaken Him, for that is another grace.

I love You so much, my heart burns with love for You, that I cannot live calm and happy, while You, my Beloved Spouse, suffer.

Since we are all members of one body, inasmuch as we have an abundance of divine life, we can communicate it in the great body of the Church.

You will ask me perhaps how we are to glorify Him. It is very simple...cling closely to the will of this adorable Master. Look upon everything, every suffering and every joy, as coming straight from Him and your life will be a continual communion since everything will be, as it were, a sacrament which gives you God — and that is really true, for God is not divided. His will is Himself. He is wholly and entirely in everything and these things are, in a way, but an emanation of His love.

I saw that when God took away from me all that seemed to be leading me to Him, it was only to give Himself even more.

Take advantage of your solitude to recollect yourself with God. While your body is resting, think how He is rest for your soul.

He is within us to sanctify us, so let us ask Him to be Himself our sanctity.

There is no wood like that of the Cross to kindle the fire of Jove in the soul, and Our Lord so wants to be loved, to find in the world … souls that are completely surrendered to Him and to His good pleasure … I tell you from Him that He thirsts for your soul.

Believe in His love, His exceeding love, as St. Paul says.  Nourish your soul on the great thoughts of faith which will reveal to you all its richness and the end for which God has created you!

As Our Lord dwells within us, His prayer is ours, and I want to share in it unceasingly, remaining like a little vessel at the spring, at the fountain of life, and so be able to communicate it to others by letting its floods of charity overflow.

The recollected soul becomes uncomplicated, transparent and simplified. In a single, unique movement which proceeds often without words, it adores, gives of itself to God, relies on and rests in him.

Our aptitude to receive grace depends upon the interior integrity wherewith we move towards Him, and when He brings His gifts, God can also bestow Himself, stamp His likeness upon us, absolve and deliver us.
