Discouragement Is Not From God.

Above All, Remember That God Looks For Solid Virtues In Us, Such As Patience, Humility, Obedience, Abnegation Of Your Own Will - That Is, The Good Will To Serve Him And Our Neighbor In Him. His Providence Allows Us Other Devotions Only Insofar As He Sees That They Are Useful To Us.

One Must Wage War Against His Predominant Passion And Not Retreat Until, With God's Help, He Has Been Victorious.

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

Teach Us To Give And Not To Count The Cost.

Pray As If God Will Take Care Of All; Act As If All Is Up To You.
