What Will You Do In The Mundane

Merit Is A Work For The Sake Of Which Christ Gives Rewards. But No Such Work Is To Be Found, For Christ Gives By Promise. Just As If A Prince Should Say To Me, "come To Me In My Castle, And I Will Give You A Hundred Florins." I Do A Work, Certainly, In Going To The Castle, But The Gift Is Not Given Me As The Reward Of My Work In Going, But Because The Prince Promised It To Me.

Our Suffering Is Not Worthy The Name Of Suffering. When I Consider My Crosses, Tribulations, And Temptations, I Shame Myself Almost To Death, Thinking What Are They In Comparison Of The Sufferings Of My Blessed Savior Christ Jesus.

Of All Deadly Sins, This Is The Most Deadly, Namely, That Any One Should Think He Is Not Guilty Of A Damnable And Deadly Sin Before God.

Faith Is The 'yes' Of The Heart, A Conviction On Which One Stakes One's Life.

There Is On Earth Among All Dangers, No More Dangerous Thing Than A Richly Endowed And Adroid Reason, Especially If She Enters Into Spiritual Matters Which Concern The Soul And God. For It Is More Possible To Teach An Ass To Read Than To Blind Such A Reason And Lead It Right; For Reason Must Be Deluded, Blinded, And Destroyed.
