The first end I propose in our daily work is to do the will of God; secondly, to do it in the manner he wills it; and thirdly
to do it because it is his will.

What was the first rule of our dear Savior's life? You know if was to do his Father's will. Well, then, the first purpose
of our daily work is to do the will of God; secondly, to do it in the manner he wills; and thirdly, to do it because it is
his will.
We know certainly that our God calls us to a holy life. We know that he gives us every grace, every abundant
grace; and though we are so weak of ourselves, this grace is able to carry us through every obstacle and difficulty.
-Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton

“We must pray literally without ceasing, I mean that prayer of the heart which
is independent of time and place, which is rather a habit of lifting up the heart to God, as in a constant communication with
him.”
