Yet You Should Practice The Greatest Possible

Let Us Remember The Devil Labors Hard To Disturb Us At The Time Of Recollection In Order To Make Us Abandon It. Let Him Then Who Omits Mental Prayer On Account Of Distractions Be Persuaded That He Gives Delight To The Devil.

The Sovereigns Of The Earth Do Not Always Grant Audience Readily; On The Contrary, The King Of Heaven, Hidden Under The Eucharistic Veils, Is Ready To Receive Anyone.

Whoever Prays Is Certainly Saved. He Who Does Not Is Certainly Damned. All The Blessed Have Been Saved By Prayer. All The Damned Have Been Lost Through Not Praying. If They Had Prayed They Would Not Have Been Lost. And This Is, And Will Be Their Greatest Torment In Hell: To Think How Easily They Might Have Been Saved, Just By Asking God For His Grace, But That Now It Is Too Late - Their Time Of Prayer Is Gone.

Saint Teresa, As The Roman Rota Attests, Never Fell Into Any Mortal Sin; But Still Our Lord Showed Her The Place Prepared For Her In Hell; Not Because She Deserved Hell, But Because, Had She Not Risen From The State Of Lukewarmness In Which She Lived, She Would In The End Have Lost The Grace Of God And Been Damned.
