 22  Unic,   8     |      blessings are in Him, let us give Him hearty praise, sisters,

 25  Unic,   9     |           in return for what they give you, since, as you know,
 26  Unic,   9     |     harmed by our so doing we can give it them and yet be completely
 27  Unic,   9     |           advice which the saints give us about fleeing from the

 32  Unic,  12     |         religious houses they may give rise to great abuses. Remember,
 33  Unic,  12     |        which He abased Himself to give us an example of humility,

 45  Unic,  16     |         thought that, in order to give checkmate, it would be enough
 46  Unic,  16     |    medicine. Oh, my God, who will give me such medicine for all
 47  Unic,  16     |           of prayer. If we do not give ourselves to His Majesty
 48  Unic,  16     |        from His mouth in order to give it them.~

 51  Unic,  17     |         be discouraged, then, and give up prayer or cease doing
 52  Unic,  17     |       many years He is pleased to give each of us her office, it

 61  Unic,  18     |           Lord, for His own sake, give us light to follow His will
 62  Unic,  19     |        and she will involuntarily give her feelings outward expression,
 63  Unic,  19     |      explain myself better I will give an illustration. A man has
 64  Unic,  19     |      would not have said: "I will give you to drink." He might
 65  Unic,  19     |     nothing by coming; and I will give drink to those whom I think
 66  Unic,  19     |        the Lord, Who promises it, give us grace, for His Majesty'
 67  Unic,  20     |          which never ends He will give you great abundance to drink
 68  Unic,  20     |           she has progressed will give her light and thus help
 69  Unic,  21     |         of wisdom, He may perhaps give me some thoughts80 which
 70  Unic,  22     |                O miserable world! Give hearty praise to God, daughters,
 71  Unic,  22     |           what I can do that will give Him pleasure, and how I
 72  Unic,  22     |          she could not resolve to give him this pleasure, for it
 73  Unic,  23     |         reasons that if I were to give them all I should have to
 74  Unic,  23     |         is that when we decide to give anything -- such as this
 75  Unic,  23     |        from her husband, will not give him so much as a ring --
 76  Unic,  23     |   grateful to us for it -- let us give it Him freely, with our
 77  Unic,  23     |         back if we should fail to give it Him for a day, or for
 78  Unic,  23     |           large-hearted enough to give but find it as much as they
 79  Unic,  23     |      accept everything we want to give Him. In drawing up our reckoning,
 80  Unic,  23     |        resolute is that this will give the devil less opportunity
 81  Unic,  26     |        understanding how, God may give us everything at once: if
 82  Unic,  26     |           back from your cross or give it up. Think often of the
 83  Unic,  27     |         How is it that Thou canst give us so much with Thy first
 84  Unic,  27     |         Thy Father, Thou shouldst give us all that there is to
 85  Unic,  27     |       Lord, Who lovest so much to give that no obstacle can stay
 86  Unic,  27     |         companion. If you cannot, give her penances heavier than
 87  Unic,  28     |         be absolutely resolved to give it to Him for His own and
 88  Unic,  28     |        our will, He takes what we give Him but does not give Himself
 89  Unic,  28     |          we give Him but does not give Himself wholly until He
 90  Unic,  29     |         little consequence. Never give way to these thoughts, which
 91  Unic,  29     |           greater the joy He will give you. He is full of compassion
 92  Unic,  29     |      charge of them ourselves and give them something which will
 93  Unic,  29     |     remain near the Lord, He will give us indications by which
 94  Unic,  30     |      single sentence, by saying: "Give us, Father, whatever is
 95  Unic,  30     |            but ask His Majesty to give you light. For we are blind
 96  Unic,  30     |        can to please Him Who will give it us: it is for that reason
 97  Unic,  30     |           In any case I shall not give you this book to read until
 98  Unic,  30     |        receive pledges which will give them a great hope of eventually

101  Unic,  31     |           is already beginning to give them His Kingdom on earth.
102  Unic,  31     |          recognize it and it will give you great comfort to know
103  Unic,  31     |     united with Him Who alone can give it happiness.~
104  Unic,  31     |       will be well, sisters, if I give some advice here to any
105  Unic,  31     |     thanksgiving. And we can best give thanks, not with many words,
106  Unic,  31     |         of advice which I want to give you now. You will often

108  Unic,  32     |         see what He desires us to give to His Father, and what

110  Unic,  32     |          leave us with nothing to give and we give all that we
111  Unic,  32     |       with nothing to give and we give all that we can -- I mean
112  Unic,  32     |       that we can -- I mean if we give in the spirit of these words: "

114  Unic,  32     |         right for us to refuse to give what He promises and offers
115  Unic,  32     |        free from self-interest, I give it to Thee freely. For I
116  Unic,  32     |          Do not fear that He will give you riches or pleasures
117  Unic,  32     |       very high value on what you give Him and desires to recompense
118  Unic,  32     |       Majesty desires. For if you give Him your will in any other
119  Unic,  32     |          a jewel, making as if to give it to Him and begging Him
120  Unic,  32     |           the Paternoster. Let us give Him once and for all the
121  Unic,  32     |       have so often undertaken to give Him. For the truth is that
122  Unic,  32     |           us first so that we may give it back to Him. Ah, my God!
123  Unic,  32     |        must both say and act, and give Him both words and deeds,
124  Unic,  32     |           only do we undertake to give God the jewel but we even
125  Unic,  32     |          this by means of trials, give me strength and let them
126  Unic,  32     |          has of all He has yet to give it. He causes it gradually
127  Unic,  32     |           say, we have nothing to give save what we have first
128  Unic,  32     |                            I will give you one piece of advice:
129  Unic,  33     |         need that the Lord should give us what we ask in these

135  Unic,  33     |        for this most loving Lamb? Give me permission to speak for
136  Unic,  33     |           bread" and asks Thee to give it, and then He says: "Give

144  Unic,  35     |         But [trust me and] do not give up this method, for the

153  Unic,  39     |       withdraw from Communion and give up our private prayer, because
