SELFLESS LOVE
Everything comes from him, everything is for him.
LOVE OF TENDERNESS
How empty are the delight so the world
to the soul who has once tasted the caress of his God.
As long as you look at me you will love me
As long as you observe me you will imitate me
As long as you watch me you will follow me....
SEARCHING LOVE
Lord, who sought me when I fled from you,
flee ye to me now as I seek Thee...
HUMBLE LOVE
Oh, Lord, that I might know myself
and that I might know You.

COMPLIANT LOVE
Nothing compares to the peace of my journey...
PENITENT LOVE
You never turn away, Lord, a heart contrite and humble
SUFFERING LOVE
The adornment of love is The Cross!
It says nothing but it goes onward and upward....
GROANING LOVE
As the solitary sparrow groans,
so I call to you from the anguish of my heart
FAITHFUL LOVE
Everything shall be for you: the flowers and the fruit...
PURE LOVE
The degree of purity determines the degree of union!..
OH JESUS INSPIRE ME!

PORT OF SALVATION
Jesus himself is the even pilot.
The End of the Voyage
It is night. We are gaining the port...
We touch it: ALLELULIA!
Now let us let down the nets
and enjoy the day.
The Rescue
Even though a soul becomes shipwrecked;
if she believes in Me, I will save her.
Do you not know that even the winds and waves obey Me?
The Tempest
O, you of little faith, why do you fear
when I am with you?
The Rough Sea
Stay firm in your faith;
although I sleep, my Heart keeps watch.
The Reefs Avioded
My child, watch with me ...
We must watch and pray without ceasing
One is Oriented and One Departs
Raise your eyes... See the Star that has been given to you.
The Mast and the Sail are Dressed
Take up your cross ... and be faithful
to the breath of Grace.
The Boat is Afloat
Listen now and be docile...
I will show you the way to go.
The Divine Pilot
Have faith ... I came to get you out of danger and lead you to the port.
The Mast and the Sail are Dressed
Take up your cross ... and be faithful
to the breath of Grace.
The Boat Departs from the Shore
Let us leave all that binds us to the earth
and depart to the other side.
The Cross teaches us to pray,
to love God as we should.
Humility, Patience, Resignation
To maintain interior peace
it is necessary that our will be in accord with
and held firmly to the will of God.
Hail, O Cross, my only hope.
Only the Cross can lead to Heaven.
Protect me, O my God, for in You I take Refuge.
You are my Master, you alone are my good.
based on Psalm 16:1-2 NAS
Garden of Prayer
The waters flow forth with joy from the Fountain of Salvation.
O, good Cross, so much love of my Savior
do I receive when I hold you in my arms.

Here is the Lord who calls you.
Return to to him, you who have forgotten his voice.

My Good Angel, help me to understand
the merits of the Cross.
It is not alone but in our relationships,
our bonds of love, that we come to heaven.
hand painted on silk
May the sweet fragrance of these flowers
anoint your heart.
Ask, ask, and ask again. Jesus loves to give.
Bouasse Lebel , Paril Pl. 1483
O that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest;

Let us go to our Lord in perfect simplicity of faith,

and unite our hearts in Charity.
