Love Ought To Show Itself

Discouragement Is Not From God.

Among The Many Signs Of A Lively Faith And Hope We Have In Eternal Life, One Of The Surest Is Not Being Overly Sad At The Death Of Those Whom We Dearly Love In Our Lord.

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.

Let Us Work As If Success Depended Upon Ourselves Alone, But With Heartfelt Conviction That We Are Doing Nothing, And God Everything.

Sin Is Unwillingness To Trust That What God Wants For Me Is Only My Deepest Happiness.
