The greater and more persistent your confidence in God,
the more abundantly you will receive all that you ask.
Banish, therefore, from thy heart the distractions of earth and turn your eyes to spiritual joys, that thou may learn at last to repose in the light of of God.

We must pray without tiring, for the salvation of mankind does not depend upon material success . . . but on Jesus alone.
They who pray with faith have fervour and fervour is the fire of prayer. This mysterious fire has the power of consuming all our faults and imperfections, and of giving to our actions, vitality, beauty and merit.
“Speak often of Heaven to those who approach you, make them love it as well as the virtues which are required before we can be admitted to our beloved country. For if you know how to draw souls there by your zeal, your good example and your exemplary religious conduct, you may be assured the gates will be opened for you also.

“Thoughtful men and women, with hearts craving the truth, have come to seek in the Catholic Church the road which leads with surety to eternal life.
“There is in the Sacred Heart the symbol and express image of the infinite love of Jesus Christ which moves us to love in return.”
“Our Lord came to the aid of each great tribulation with a special devotion. The present and future tribulations of the Church and of nations are greater than at any other period, and this persecution is more dangerous than those of previous times. Hence, the devotion which God sends to the succor of His Church and of the nations at the present time is the devotion to the Most Holy Eucharist. It is the highest of all devotions.”

I would like to invite each of you to listen careful to God’s voice in your heart. Listen to his voice. Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. Open your hearts. Open up your hearts to Christ. The deepest joy there is in life is the joy that comes from God and is found in Jesus Christ the son of God. Jesus is the hope of yours. He is my hope. He is the hope of the world.
People are made for happiness. Rightly, then, you thirst for happiness. Christ has the answer to this desire of yours. But he asks you to trust him. True joy is a victory, something which cannot be obtained without a long and difficult struggle. Christ holds the secret of this victory.
Let yourselves be taken over by the light of Christ,
and spread that light wherever you are.
We are not the sum of our weaknesses and failures
We are the sum of God’s love for us
