You are my hope and my refuge in the day of my trouble.
Grant me, O God, strength and courage to restrain the desires of my heart, that I may be free to possess you, Amen.
He who knows how to suffer will enjoy much peace, and he is a conqueror of himself, the lord of the world, the friend of Christ, and an heir of Heaven.
The lover flies, runs and rejoices; he is free and nothing can restrain him. He gives all for all and has all in all.
Ask, and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
