“And there was a great calm” [Matt. 8:26]. It is necessary that what you read daily from the Gospel be a real event in your life, as if it had taken place in your presence and with your participation. For that is precisely why we are given the holy Gospel, in order that all the […]

Candle to Candle

By one candle is another lit, from one heart does another heart love, by one soul is another soul enlightened. So that thousands might be warmed and enlightened, a flame must first be lit somewhere. How precious that flame is! How we ought to love and to venerate God’s elect, whom He sends into the […]

Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, wretch that I am! Jesus Christ, through Your most sweet Name, you calm the tempest in my heart occasioned by these brutal circumstances. You appear in the troubled waters of my soul and extend a helping hand to me, and I hear Your most sweet voice: […]

“This is my opinion too,” said my teacher. “I also think that the measure of pain is proportional to the quantity of evil in each person. For it is not likely that the one who has gone far in forbidden evils and the one who has fallen into moderate transgressions will be distressed equally as […]

Of all the things people hold dear, none is necessary: not talents, not successes, not accomplishments. All these are imaginary riches for oneself. There is one fortune and joy that God grants equally to every person: one’s own life, created in God, and a heart capable of loving and of rejoicing in love. Spiritual Diary,  […]
