There Is Nothing Small In The Service

In So Far As Divine Love Beautifies Our Souls. And Makes Us Pleasing To His Divine Majesty, It Is Called Grace; In So Far As It Gives Us Strength To Do Good, It Is Called Charity; But When It Reaches Such A Degree Of Perfection, That It Makes Us Not Only Do The Good, But Do So Carefully, Frequently And Readily, Then It Is Called Devotion.

If After All Your Efforts You Cannot Succeed, You Could Not Please Our Lord More Than By Sacrificing To Him Your Will, And Remaining In Tranquility, Humility, And Devotion, Entirely Conformed And Submissive To His Divine Will And Good Pleasure.

It Is Wonderful How Attractive A Gentle, Pleasant Manner Is, And How Much It Wins Hearts.

Do Not Fret Under Such Assistance As Is Needful; Therein Lies One Great Grace Of Poverty. It Were Overambitious To Aim At Being Poor Without Suffering Any Inconvenience, In Other Words, To Have The Credit Of Poverty And The Convenience Of Riches.

Work Hard Every Day At Increasing Your Purity Of Heart, Which Consists In Appraising Things And Weighing Them In The Balance Of God's Will.
