He Who Desires Nothing But God Is

Devil Does Not Bring Sinners To Hell With Their Eyes Open: He First Blinds Them With The Malice Of Their Own Sins. He Thus Leads Them To Eternal Perdition. Before We Fall Into Sin, The Enemy Labours To Blind Us, That We May Not See The Evil We Do, And The Ruin We Bring Upon Ourselves By Offending God. After We Commit Sin, He Seeks To Make Us Dumb, That, Through Shame, We May Conceal Our Guilt In Confession.

There Is No One, After God, Who Loves Us As Much As This Most Loving Mother Does.

God Is Displeased At The Diffidence Of Souls Who Love Him Sincerely And Whom He Himself Loves.

Know Also That You Will Probably Gain More By Praying Fifteen Minutes Before The Blessed Sacrament Than By All The Other Spiritual Exercises Of The Day. True, Our Lord Hears Our Prayers Anywhere, For He Has Made The Promise, 'ask, And You Shall Receive,' But He Has Revealed To His Servants That Those Who Visit Him In The Blessed Sacrament Will Obtain A More Abundant Measure Of Grace.

Certainly Amongst All Devotions, After That Of Receiving The Sacraments, That Of Adoring Jesus In The Blessed Sacrament Holds First Place, Is Most Pleasing To God, And Most Useful To Ourselves. Do Not Then, O Devout Soul, Refuse To Begin This Devotion; And Forsaking The Conversation Of Men, Dwell Each Day, From This Time Forward, For At Least Half Or Quarter Of An Hour, In Some Church, In The Presence Of Jesus Christ Under The Sacramental Species. Taste And See How Sweet Is The Lord.
