He Who Prays Most Receives Most.

The Means For Maintaining Perfect Love Is To Accomplish Frequent Acts Of Love. Fire Is Kindled By The Wood We Cast Into It And Love Is Enkindled By Acts Of Love.

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.

Saint Teresa, As The Roman Rota Attests, Never Fell Into Any Mortal Sin; But Still Our Lord Showed Her The Place Prepared For Her In Hell; Not Because She Deserved Hell, But Because, Had She Not Risen From The State Of Lukewarmness In Which She Lived, She Would In The End Have Lost The Grace Of God And Been Damned.

St. Augustine And St. Thomas Define Mortal Sin To Be A Turning Away From God: That Is, The Turning Of One's Back Upon God, Leaving The Creator For The Sake Of The Creature. What Punishment Would That Subject Deserve Who, While His King Was Giving Him A Command, Contemptuously Turned His Back Upon Him To Go And Transgress His Orders? This Is What The Sinner Does; And This Is Punished In Hell With The Pain Of Loss, That Is, The Loss Of God, A Punishment Richly Deserved By Him Who In This Life Turns His Back Upon His Sovereign Good.

Your God Is Ever Beside You - Indeed, He Is Even Within You.
