Keep the Rule that the Rule may keep you.
Obedience works miracles.
If a Sister works in Holy Obedience, the whole Congregation
will support her. If she is disobedient, she is left alone
and has no success anymore.
Be a
holocaust before God. To fulfill the Will of God you
entered the convent.
The
surest way to heaven is to be simple, humble, and faithful
in your duties.
A
humble Sister who performs her work in a pure intention is
dearer to me than a learned Sister who is proud of herself.
To a Sister who is faithful in little things you can entrust
greater things.
Our
Lord has in everything He does a good intention.
Trials have to come for everybody in every state.
Be
always faithful to holy poverty and simplicity.
The sick Sisters are a blessing of the house.
See in
the sick our Lord Himself.
Endeavor to prevent sins. If only one sin would be
prevented by you, much would be accomplished.
Teach
the children that there is no heaven for the poor alone and
for the rich alone but poor and rich are together in heaven.
For my Lord nothing is too hard.
I will
bear my cross as a penance for my sins. I have deserved
everything.
Joy is very important in the education and training of
children.
Give
an encouraging word for every effort, ... but not to please
people.
We must under all circumstances hold on to Love of Poverty,
Joy in Work, and Faithfulness in Prayer. |
