Provided That God Be Glorified, We Must

Represent To Yourself A Dark City All Burning And Stinking With Fire And Brimstone. The Damned Are In The Depth Of Hell Within This Woful City, Where They Suffer Unspeakable Torments In All Their Senses And Members. Consider Above All The Eternity Of Their Pains, Which Above All Things Makes Hell Intolerable.

Do Not Look Forward To What May Happen Tomorrow; The Same Everlasting Father Who Cares For You Today Will Take Care Of You Tomorrow And Every Day. Either He Will Shield You From Suffering, Or He Will Give You Unfailing Strength To Bear It. Be At Peace, Then, Put Aside All Anxious Thoughts And Imaginations, And Say Continually: 'the Lord Is My Strength And My Shield; My Heart Has Trusted In Him And I Am Helped. He Is Not Only With Me But In Me And I In Him.'

Be Patient With Everyone, But Above All With Yourself.

Let Us Be What God Likes, So Long As We Are His, And Let Us Not Be What We Want To Be, If It Is Against His Intention.

In No Other Action Can Our Savior Be Considered More Tender Or More Loving Than In This, In Which He, As It Were, Annihilates Himself And Reduces Himself To Food, That He May Penetrate Our Souls And Unite Himself To The Hearts Of His Faithful.
