Faith & Trust
There was only Thou, O my God, who changed not for me. Thou didst redouble my interior graces, in proportion as Thou didst augment my exterior crosses.
The peculiar property of this prayer of the heart is to give a strong faith. Mine was without limits, as was also my resignation to God, and my confidence in Him.
I had at that time no other disposition than to sacrifice myself to divine Providence.
Nothing was more easy to me than prayer. Hours passed away like moments, while I could hardly do anything else but pray.
God took a new possession of me, and left me not.
It seemed to me as if God more powerfully united me to Himself.
