[quote style=”boxed”]Remember that it is he who has created you, who has kept you, who has redeemed you; that by his grace you have been baptized, you have been called, you have received good inspirations, you have been preserved from many evils, and have, in fine, had a multitude of benefits bestowed on you. If you weigh these things in a just balance, you will find that whatsoever the heavens include and whatsoever the earth contains are benefits proceeding from him; that all the members and senses, which compose your body, are so many of his gifts; that all the moments you breath are so many favors you receive from his hand; that the bread you eat, the you walk on, the sun which lights you, the heavens which encompass you, and whatever serves for the entertainments of your life are presents that he makes you; and, in fine, to comprehend all in one word, all the good in the world are his benefits, since he created all this good for you, and has preserved you from the greatest of evils, that is dying in your sins, it being certain that no misery is suffered by one man which another may not undergo. ~Venerable Louise of Granada[/quote]
