Abandon to Him…
Let us have no further reserve with Him; let us abandon to Him all that we are, without anxiety about the future, not reflecting on ourselves and our incapacity.
–Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647- 1690)
Say “I will” …
It is only necessary to say energetically “I will,” and all will go well.
–Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647-1690)
Lose myself in Jesus…
I need nothing but God, and to lose myself in the heart of Jesus.
–Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647-1690)
Live authentically…
… live authentically and wholeheartedly as God’s, handing
over our own plans and desires and picking up His plans and desires.
–Brother Lawrence (1614-1691)
Surrender ourselves to Him…
That we ought, once for all, heartily to put our whole trust in God, and make a total surrender of ourselves to Him, secure that He would not deceive us.
–Brother Lawrence (1614-1691)
Opportunities to serve God…
Practice those little, humble virtues which grow like flowers at the foot of the cross: helping the poor, visiting the sick, and taking care of your family with all the tasks that go with such things and with all the useful diligence which will not let you stand idly by, for great opportunities to serve God rarely present themselves while little ones are frequent.
–Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
