Acquire The Habit Of Speaking To God

It Is A Great Mistake, As We Have Already Remarked, To Be Afraid Of Him And To Act In His Presence Like A Timid And Craven Slave Trembling With Fright Before His Master.

My Lord Jesus Christ, Who, For The Love You Bear To Mankind, Do Remain Night And Day In This Sacrament, Full Of Pity And Love, Awaiting, Calling, And Receiving All Who Come To Visit You; I Believe That You Are Present In The Sacrament Of The Altar; I Adore You From The Depths Of My Own Nothingness; I Thank You For The Many Graces You Have Given Me, And Especially For Having Given Me Yourself In This Sacrament.

When We Have To Reply To Anyone Who Has Insulted Us, We Should Be Careful To Do It Always With Gentleness. A Soft Answer Extinguishes The Fire Of Wrath.

He Who Embraces The Cross And Bears It With Patience Lightens The Weight Of The Cross. Indeed, The Weight Itself Becomes A Consolation; For God Abounds With Grace To All Those Who Carry The Cross With Good Will In Order To Please Him.

Obedience To A Confessor Is The Most Acceptable Offering Which We Can Make To God, And The Most Secure Way Of Doing The Divine Will.
