Be generous to the poor orphans and those in need. The man to whom our Lord has been liberal ought not to be stingy. We shall one day find in Heaven as much rest and joy as we ourselves have dispensed in this life.

More quotes by Ignatius of Loyola
Among the many signs of a lively faith and hope we have in eternal life, one of the surest is not being overly sad at the death of those whom we dearly love in our Lord.
Ignatius of Loyola
There is no doubt that God will never be wanting to us, provided that He finds in us that humility which makes us worthy of His gifts, the desire of possessing them, and the promptitude to co-operate industriously with the graces He gives us.
Ignatius of Loyola
What seems to me white, I will believe black if the hierarchical Church so defines.
Ignatius of Loyola
It is proper to ask for sorrow with Christ in sorrow, anguish with Christ in anguish, tears and deep grief because of the great affliction Christ endures for me.
Ignatius of Loyola

Ignatius of Loyola
Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will. All that I am and all that I possess You have given me. I surrender it all to You to be disposed of according to Your will. Give me only Your love and Your grace with these I will be rich enough, and will desire nothing more.
Ignatius of Loyola

God our Lord would have us look to the Giver and love Him more than His gift, keeping Him always before our eyes, in our hearts, and in our thoughts.
Ignatius of Loyola

Ignatius of Loyola
Stand firm and immovable as an anvil when it is beaten upon.
Ignatius of Loyola
But some most worthless persons are in the habit of carrying about the name of Jesus Christ in wicked guile, while yet they practice things unworthy of God, and hold opinions contrary to the doctrine of Christ, to their own destruction, and that of those who give credit to them, whom you must avoid as ye would wild beasts.
Ignatius of Loyola
To conquer himself is the greatest victory that man can gain.
Ignatius of Loyola
Let your modesty be a sufficient incitement, yea, an exhortation to everyone to be at peace on their merely looking at you.
Ignatius of Loyola
We should always be disposed to believe that that which appears white is really black, if the hierarchy of the Church so decides.
Ignatius of Loyola
Teach us, Good Lord, to give and not count the cost to fight and not to heed the wounds to toil and not to seek for rest to labor and not to ask for any reward save that of knowing that we do thy will.
Ignatius of Loyola
Discouragement is not from God.
Ignatius of Loyola
