Any old woman can love God better than a doctor of theology can.

St. Bonaventure

I'll drink to that!

Love Mary! She is lovable, faithful, constant. She will never let herself be outdone in love, but will ever remain supreme. If you are in danger, she will hasten to free you. If you are troubled, she will console you. If you are sick, she will bring you relief. If you are in need, she will help you. She does not look to see what kind of person you have been. She simply comes to a heart that wants to love her. She comes quickly and opens her merciful heart to you, embraces you and consoles and serves you. She will even be at hand to accompany you on the trip to eternity.
- St. Gabriel Possenti

Great thread, Emile. Thanks for it.

St. Francis de Sales: "The sum of all spiritual exercises, (is) the most holy, sacred, and Sovereign Sacrifice and Sacrament of the Eucharist, the very center of our Christian religion, the heart of all devotion, the soul of piety; that Ineffable Mystery which embraces the whole depth of Divine Love, by which God, giving himself really to us, conveys all his graces and favors to men with royal magnificence … Prayer made in union with this Divine Sacrifice has untold power…"

I appreciate the focus on Our Lady. There was never a saint, as far as I know, who didn't have a strong devotion to Our Lady.

Indeed, as you say, she will console, and strengthen and relieve. There never was and never will be another one like her.
