The definitions of the Church are the rules of true faith.

It would be the greatest delight of the seraphs to pile up sand on the seashore or to pull weeds in a garden for all eternity, if they found out such was God's will. Our Lord himself teaches us to ask to do the will of God on earth as the saints do it in heaven: Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
Of all devotions, that of adoring Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the greatest after the sacraments, the one dearest to God and the one most helpful to us.

The sovereigns of the earth do not always grant audience readily on the contrary, the King of Heaven, hidden under the eucharistic veils, is ready to receive anyone.

Your God is ever beside you - indeed, He is even within you.

If, on a rare occasion, it is necessary to speak with some severity in order to make a grievous crime felt, we should always, at the conclusion of the rebuke, add some kind words. We must heal wounds, as the Samaritan did, with wine and oil. But as oil floats above all other liquors, so meekness should predominate in all our actions.

In cold and heat, in rain and wind, the soul united to God says, I want it to be warm, to be cold, windy, to rain, because God wills it.
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
The more a person loves God, the more reason he has to hope in Him. This hope produces in the Saints an unutterable peace, which they preserve even in adversity, because as they love God, and know how beautiful He is to those who love Him, they place all their confidence and find all their repose in Him alone.

Saint Teresa, as the Roman Rota attests, never fell into any mortal sin but still Our Lord showed her the place prepared for her in Hell not because she deserved Hell, but because, had she not risen from the state of lukewarmness in which she lived, she would in the end have lost the grace of God and been damned.

Without prayer it is impossible to resist temptations and to keep the commandments.

Image
You may be sure that of all the moments of your life, the time you spend before the divine Sacrament will be that which will give you more strength during life and more consolation at the hour of your death and during eternity

A person may be Baptized, and yet not born again to grace, in consequence of not having the necessary dispositions at Baptism.

Image
Woe to him who neglects to recommend himself to Mary, and thus closes the channel of grace!
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
Such is the compassion, such the love which Mary bears us, that she is never tired of praying for us.
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
Acquire the habit of speaking to God as if you were alone with Him, familiarly and with confidence and love, as to the dearest and most loving of friends.
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
Ask those who love Him with a sincere love, and they will tell you that they find no greater or prompter relief amid the troubles of their life than in loving conversation with their Divine Friend.
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
He who wishes to find Jesus should seek Him, not in the delights and pleasures of the world, but in mortification of the senses.
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
Obedience to a confessor is the most acceptable offering which we can make to God, and the most secure way of doing the divine will.
Alphonsus Liguori
Image
Speak to Him often of your business, your plans, your troubles, your fears - of everything that concerns you.

There is no one, after God, who loves us as much as this most loving Mother does.
