He who loves is not ashamed before men of what he does for God, neither does he hide it through shame though the whole world should condemn it.

In the evening of life, we will be judged on love alone.

God calls to us in countless little ways all the time. Through illnesses and suffering and through sorrow he calls to us. Through a truth glimpsed fleetingly in a state of prayer he calls to us. No matter how halfhearted such insights may be, God rejoices whenever we learn what he is trying to teach us.

As soon as you try to please Him in everything and have an unshakable trust He purifies you every moment in His love and He lets no sin remain.

What you most seek and desire you will not find by this way of yours, nor through high contemplation, but in much humility and submission of heart.

But we think we are giving God everything, whereas what we are really offering Him is the revenue or the fruits of our land while keeping the stock and the right of ownership of it in our own hands.

It is love alone that gives worth to all things.

She asks your pardon for her unbelieving brethren, and is willing to eat the bread of sorrow as long as You may wish. For love of You she will sit at that table of bitterness where these poor sinners take their food, and she will not stir from it until You give the sign.

Those who seek to please God without reservation, at all times and in every situation, draw upon themselves the divine gaze and receive from the Sacred Heart of Jesus the greatest affection and care.

As the tilling of soil is necessary for it's fruitfulness- untilled soil produces only weeds-mortification of the appetites is a requisite for man's spiritual fruitfulness.

Where, my Lord, did I think I could find a remedy save in You? What folly; to flee from the light so as to be always stumbling!

I am happy and shall never cease to be so because I belong to my God. At every moment I find in him my heaven and an eternal and immutable love. I don't desire anything but him and this love grows in my soul inasmuch I see myself introduced in the bosom of his divine love and adorable perfections.
