O Lord, I Do Most Cheerfully Commit

Nothing Is So Costly As The Pursuit Of A Cure For Imaginary Ills.

Simplicity Is The Straightforwardness Of A Soul Which Refuses Itself Any Reaction With Regard To Itself Or Its Deeds. This Virtue Differs From And Surpasses Sincerity. We See Many People Who Are Sincere Without Being Simple. They Do Not Wish To Be Taken For Other Than What They Are; But They Are Always Fearing Lest They Should Be Taken For What They Are Not.

There Are Two Principal Points Of Attention Necessary For The Preservation Of This Constant Spirit Of Prayer Which Unites Us With God; We Must Continually Seek To Cherish It, And We Must Avoid Everything That Tends To Make Us Lose It.

The Presence Of God Calms The Soul, And Gives It Quiet And Repose.

I Believe That We Are Conforming To The Divine Order And The Will Of Providence When We Are Doing Even Indifferent Things That Belong To Our Condition.
