Study, Therefore, To Withdraw The Love Of

He That Loveth, Flieth, Runneth, And Rejoiceth. He Is Free, And Cannot Be Held In. He Giveth All For All, And Hath All In All, Because He Resteth In One Highest Above All Things, From Whom All That Is Good Flows And Proceeds.

Why Seekest Thou Rest, Since Thou Art Born To Labor? [lat., Cur Quaeris Quietem, Quam Natus Sis Ad Laborem?]

Dispose Thyself To Patience Rather Than To Comfort, And To The Bearing Of The Cross Rather Than To Gladness.

Let All Your Thoughts Be With The Most High, And Direct Your Humble Prayers Unceasingly To Christ. If You Cannot Contemplate High And Heavenly Things, Take Refuge In The Passion Of Christ, And Love To Dwell Within His Sacred Wounds. For If You Devoutly Seek The Wounds Of Jesus And The Precious Marks Of His Passion, You Will Find Great Strength In All Troubles.

He Has Great Tranquillity Of Heart Who Cares Neither For The Praises Nor The Fault-finding Of Men. He Will Easily Be Content And Pacified, Whose Conscience Is Pure. You Are Not Holier If You Are Praised, Nor The More Worthless If You Are Found Fault With. What You Are, That You Are; Neither By Word Can You Be Made Greater Than What You Are In The Sight Of God.
