“Let Him empty and transform you ;and afterwards fill the chalice of your hearts to the brim, that you in your turn, may give of your abundance. Seek Him. Knowledge will make you strong as death.

Serve Jesus, casting aside and forgetting all that troubles or worries you, make loved the love that is not loved.”
