The Merit Of Persons Is To Be

From Morning To Night Keep Jesus In Thy Heart, Long For Nothing, Desire Nothing, Hope For Nothing But To Have All That Is Within Thee Changed Into The Spirit And Temper Of The Holy Jesus.

If Our Life Is Not A Course Of Humility, Self-denial, Renunciation Of The World, Poverty Of Spirit, And Heavenly Affection, We Do Not Live The Lives Of Christians.

He Who Has Learned To Pray Has Learned The Greatest Secret Of A Holy And Happy Life.

Let Every Creature Have Your Love. Love, With Its Fruits Of Meekness, Patience, And Humility, Is All That We Can Wish For Ourselves And Our Fellow Creatures. For This Is To Live In God, United With Him, Both For Time And Eternity. To Desire To Communicate Good To Everyone, In The Degree That We Can And To Which Each Person Is Capable Of Receiving From Us, Is A Divine Temper, For Thus God Stands Unchangeably Disposed Towards The Whole Creation.

All That Is Sweet, Delightful, And Amiable In This World, In The Serenity Of The Air, The Fineness Of Seasons, The Joy Of Light, The Melody Of Sounds, The Beauty Of Colors, The Fragrancy Of Smells, The Splendor Of Precious Stones, Is Nothing Else But Heaven Breaking Through The Veil Of This World.
