If Anyone Asks You For Something That

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.

Stand Firm And Immovable As An Anvil When It Is Beaten Upon.

If You Attach Your Heart To Certain Places And Occupations, Obedience Oftentimes Places You In Some Other Place That You May Not Like; To Be Always Cheerful, Be Always Humble And Obedient.

Pardon Me, O Perfections Of My God, For Having Preferred Imperfect And Evil Inclinations To Thee! Pardon Me, O Justice Of My God, For Having Outraged Thee By My Sins. Pardon Me, O Holiness Of My God, For Having So Long Stained Thy Sight's Purity By My Sins. Pardon Me, O Mercy Of My God, For Having Despised So Long Thy Mercy's Voice. In Deep Sorrow And Contrition, I Cast Myself At Thy Feet: Have Mercy On Me.

The Acknowledgment Of And Gratitude For Favors And Gifts Received Is Loved And Esteemed In Heaven And On Earth.
