Idleness Is Hells Fishhook For Catching Souls.

As For Joy, As Little As One Can Have Of It In This Life, Experience Shows That It Is Not The Idle Who Possess It, But Those Who Are Zealous In The Service Of God.

God Our Lord Would Have Us Look To The Giver And Love Him More Than His Gift, Keeping Him Always Before Our Eyes, In Our Hearts, And In Our Thoughts.

Discouragement Is Not From God.

Few Souls Understand What God Would Effect In Them If They Should Give Themselves Entirely Into His Hands And Allow His Grace To Act.

Realize That Illness And Other Temporal Setbacks Often Come To Us From The Hand Of God Our Lord, And Are Sent To Help Us Know Ourselves Better, To Free Ourselves Of The Love Of Created Things, And To Reflect On The Brevity Of This Life And, Thus, To Prepare Ourselves For The Life Which Is Without End.
