The more a person loves God, the more reason he has to hope in Him.

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.
Alphonsus Liguori
