May the perfect grace and eternal love of Christ our Lord be our never-failing protection and help.

For those who love, nothing is too difficult, especially when it is done for the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

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.

May God our Lord never let me harm anyone when I cannot help him!

May it please Christ our Lord to grant us true humility and abnegation of will and judgment, so that we may deserve to begin to be His disciples.

We should love the body insofar as it is obedient and helpful to the soul, since the soul, with the body's help and service, is better disposed for the service and praise of our Creator and Lord.
