Ave Maria!— January’s Theme: Divine Love
“When Jesus wants to let me know that He loves me, He lets me delight in a taste of His wounds, thorns, anguishes…of His Passion. When He wants me to rejoice He fills my heart with that spirit which is all afire, He speaks to me of His joys. But when He wants to be pleased, He speaks to me of His sufferings; He invites me with a voice both of prayer and command to lend my body to lighten His pains.”
