List of points

Do you not greet warmly all the people you love, and speak to them cordially? —Well, you and I are going to greet Jesus, Mary and Joseph, and our Guardian Angels, many times a day.

Develop a lively devotion for Our Mother. She knows how to respond in a most sensitive way to the presents we give her.

What is more, if you say the Holy Rosary every day, with a spirit of faith and love, Our Lady will make sure she leads you very far along her Son’s path.

Without Our Mother’s aid, how can we manage to keep up our daily struggle? —Do you seek it constantly?

The Guardian Angel always accompanies us as our principal witness. It is he who, at your particular judgement, will remember the kind deeds you performed for Our Lord throughout your life. Furthermore, when you feel lost, before the terrible accusations of the enemy, your Angel will present those intimate desires of your heart — which perhaps you yourself might have forgotten — those proofs of love which you might have had for God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.

That is why you must never forget your Guardian Angel, and that Prince of Heaven shall not abandon you now, or at that decisive moment.

Your Communions were very cold: you paid little attention to the Lord: you were distracted by the smallest trifle… But ever since you began to realise during an intimate dialogue with God that the angels are present, your attitude has changed… “Let them not see me like this!”, you say to yourself…

—And see how, as a result of thinking, “What will they say?” — this time, for a good motive — you have advanced a little towards Love.

When you see yourself with a dry heart, without knowing what to say, go with confidence to the Virgin Mary. Say to her, “My Mother Immaculate, intercede for me.”

If you invoke her with faith, she will make you taste in the midst of your dryness the proximity of God.
