HOLY SOBRIETY
“One can doubt man’s disposition, but not God’s plans, which will be fulfilled in a timely and importunate manner, even amidst of errors and darkness” (Interior Word).
A HOLY SERVICE
“Address your prayers to me so that I may carry out the work of my love in all souls” (Message of God the Father to Sister Eugenia Ravasio).
DO I SUFFER WELL?
“It is true that I suffer much, but do I suffer well? That is the question.” (St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus)

“The simpler a thing is, the more force and power it possesses.” (Meister Eckhart)

“God has as much room on earth as man grants Him.” (Meister Eckhart)
