On spiritual poverty and trust in God…

“Little, very little, be very little before God.” “It is so good to be poor, to have nothing, to depend on God for everything.” “If God is with us, it will be accomplished … God will help us; the work is his.” “He is so good ... love God very much. All for him, do everything through love.” “Give us the house – if God fills it, God will not abandon it!” “We must always say: ‘Blessed be God. Thank you, my God. Glory be to God.’” “God has blessed me because I have always greatly thanked his Providence.”
