"God always takes care of us. We all have work to do, and we must face each day bravely, knowing that God is always by your side. Even out of things that hurt He brings good. NEVER BE AFRAID WHEN YOU ARE DOING GOD'S WORK."

"'No, not seven times but seventy times seven times.' What Jesus was trying to do was not to issue an impossible commandment, but to offer the key to true inner peace. He came to bring peace to troubled souls and to show people how to live in a way that would not only lead them to God, but help them find a meaning to life that made sense. He was deeply concerned about people's inability to find peace. His secret which he lived himself, was in forgiveness, a forgiveness so complete that it never even allowed itself to take offense. Always try to understand why people say and do the things they do, the inner anguish that gives rise to those things, and then it is hard to take offense. Indeed, you can even pity them. You may be wary, so you can protect yourself, but you can still reach out and be a brother and sister to those people, never despairing of trying to heal their troubled, tortured souls. Jesus himself lived that way. He never took offense and his last words were 'Father, forgive them, they know not what they have done.'"
