13th November - Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini
Prayer is powerful! It fills the earth with mercy, it makes the Divine clemency pass from generation to generation; right along the course of the centuries wonderful works have been achieved through prayer.
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 - Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini
