O ye bodily members, praise God that He has given you the capacity to suffer. God’s Will is my will. I would rather lift a straw from the ground by the will of God, than raise a hundred dead men to life by my own will - Saint Maria Crescentia Höss
I am happier than you are, because I have the Hidden Jesus within my heart - Saint Francisco Marto. Oh, my Jesus! This is for love of You, for the conversion of sinners, for the Holy Father, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary - Saint Jacinta Marto
He loves, He hopes, He waits. Our Lord prefers to wait Himself for the sinner for years rather than keep us waiting an instant - Saint Maria Goretti.
Unless a man gives himself entirely to the Cross, in a spirit of humility and self-abasement; unless he casts himself down to be trampled underfoot by all and despised, accepting injustice, contempt and mockery; unless he undergoes all these things with joy for the sake of the Lord, not claiming any kind of human reward whatsoever - glory or honor or earthly pleasures - he cannot become a true Christian - Saint Mark the Evangelist
