  5  Unic,   2     |           His command that we have come here and His words are true --
  6  Unic,   3     |         detached from things which come to an end on earth, and
  7  Unic,   3     |          my King, but the day will come when all will be known.
  8  Unic,   3     |         more. Let those who are to come remember that, if they have
  9  Unic,   4     |         perfection and great peace come of doing what I say and
 10  Unic,   5     |             a fact which will soon come to be known in a little

 19  Unic,  10     |          for Christ, that you have come here. The devil tells us
 20  Unic,  10     |       heart were breaking, and you come and ask her to excuse you
 21  Unic,  11     |       makes you imagine them. They come and go; and unless you get
 22  Unic,  11     |      except to God) you will never come to the end of them. I lay
 23  Unic,  11     |           I am! Surely we have not come here to indulge ourselves
 24  Unic,  11     |     complain of it, lest it should come to her husband's knowledge,
 25  Unic,  11     |          yourselves wholly to God, come what may. What does it matter
 26  Unic,  12     |                             We now come to some other little things
 27  Unic,  12     |           I am". If these thoughts come, you must quickly check
 28  Unic,  12     |        whole prayer be that He may come to your aid by sending you
 29  Unic,  12     |       never make great progress or come to enjoy the real fruit
 30  Unic,  12     |         day Satan will not dare to come back again lest he should

 33  Unic,  13     |         such a nun in the world to come! There are many reasons
 34  Unic,  14     |            religion]. She must not come, as many nuns now do, simply
 35  Unic,  14     |         pay for it in the world to come! Such persons are never
 36  Unic,  16     |         the King of glory will not come to our souls -- that is,
 37  Unic,  16     |           to do ours. And since we come here for no other reason,
 38  Unic,  17     |        cannot tell if consolations come from God or are sent by
 39  Unic,  18     |            fear no trials that may come to them.~
 40  Unic,  18     |            both merit and humility come in, when you really think
 41  Unic,  18     |        until we reach the world to come. The other things I have
 42  Unic,  18     |        which are given us and then come to an end. I am referring
 43  Unic,  18     |          knowing that these orders come from God since she is in
 44  Unic,  18     |           that to some people they come from God, and yet that if
 45  Unic,  19     |        trouble. Their strength has come to an end; their courage
 46  Unic,  19     |          for things in the life to come will exceed any natural
 47  Unic,  19     |               that is, tears which come from true prayer -- is a
 48  Unic,  19     |    excellent as they may be, which come through the intermediacy
 49  Unic,  19     |           in which everything will come to an end, so that we may
 50  Unic,  19     |         our desires for this water come from ourselves, they are
 51  Unic,  19     |         think, even did the desire come from the Spirit of God,
 52  Unic,  19     |          course, if the desire had come from God, it would have
 53  Unic,  19     |       drink." He might have said: "Come, all of you, for after all
 54  Unic,  19     |          as He said we were all to come, without making this condition,
 55  Unic,  20     |          roads by which they might come to Him, just as He also
 56  Unic,  20     |            did not say: "Some must come by this way and others by
 57  Unic,  20     |        forbidden none to strive to come and drink of this fountain
 58  Unic,  20     |           He will forbid no one to come: indeed, He calls us publicly,
 59  Unic,  20     |      understand your language will come to see you. If one knows
 60  Unic,  21     |            high one. The time will come when we shall realize that
 61  Unic,  21     |           their goal, whatever may come, whatever may happen to
 62  Unic,  21     |          invention; it must indeed come from the devil. Oh, my Lord,
 63  Unic,  22     |          those who praise Thee and come to speak with Thee to do
 64  Unic,  22     |            such a one as myself to come near Him, it is well that
 65  Unic,  23     |           using it himself and has come to look upon it as his own.
 66  Unic,  23     |       courageously. He knows that, come what may, he must not retreat.
 67  Unic,  24     |        case any such person should come to this house (for, as I
 68  Unic,  25     |          will be without what must come first; sometimes even the
 69  Unic,  26     |        will suffer all trials that come to me and count them as
 70  Unic,  27     |      favour as this, Lord, to have come at the end of the prayer?
 71  Unic,  28     |            often distracted should come to understand this truth
 72  Unic,  28     |           excellent road, and will come without fail to drink of
 73  Unic,  28     |        recollected. Later they may come out again, but it is a great
 74  Unic,  28     |           surrendered, for if they come out it is as captives and
 75  Unic,  29     |            by the Lord. We did not come here to seek rewards in
 76  Unic,  29     |            but only in the life to come. Let our thoughts always
 77  Unic,  29     |          this, but some sister may come to you who will not know
 78  Unic,  30(106)|           be Thy name. Thy kingdom come."~
 79  Unic,  30     |                        We must now come to consider the next petition
 80  Unic,  30     |         pray that this Kingdom may come in us: "Hallowed be Thy
 81  Unic,  30     |           be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come in us." Consider now, daughters,
 82  Unic,  30     |            satisfaction which will come to us when we see that all
 83  Unic,  31     |          on earth. Sometimes tears come to their eyes, but they
 84  Unic,  31     |      without knowing whence it has come to them, but knowing at
 85  Unic,  31     |          of no help to you. It may come about that the soul is enjoying
 86  Unic,  31     |           quiet. For thoughts will come and go, but the will is
 87  Unic,  31     |          the Lord of the world has come and cast out. I do not mean
 88  Unic,  32     |           for the time, which will come very soon, when we shall
 89  Unic,  32     |           me strength and let them come. If by means of persecutions
 90  Unic,  33     |            matter, He wished it to come from the hand of the Eternal
 91  Unic,  34     |    fruition of Him in the world to come, they are His own creatures,
 92  Unic,  34     |            opportunity but should] come to Him. If, while He went
 93  Unic,  34     |          will not, as I have said, come so much disguised as to
 94  Unic,  34     |           true friend and does not come to receive Him as such,
 95  Unic,  35     |           Thee, that so many evils come. What, then, can I do, my
 96  Unic,  36     |        empty our hands are when we come to Thee that Thou, of Thy
 97  Unic,  37     |         produces, when the favours come from Him.~
 98  Unic,  38     |           transform themselves and come and visit them in the disguise
 99  Unic,  38     |         they can counterfeit to us come from God. This, I think,
100  Unic,  38     |            that these consolations come from the devil, and knowing
101  Unic,  38     |         since they believe them to come from His hand.~
102  Unic,  38     |           consolations and favours come to us, we feel that we are
103  Unic,  38     |            from it. And then there come days when a single word
104  Unic,  38     |       repayment. Our treasure must come from elsewhere and we never
105  Unic,  38     |         given them to us, until we come to the test. For it may
106  Unic,  38     |            God to provide for you, come what may. If you are going
107  Unic,  38     |          to repeating them that we come to believe them more and
108  Unic,  39     |           to engage in it. When we come to the Most Holy Sacrament,
109  Unic,  39     |            I realize that they all come to an end and I get more
110  Unic,  39     |        occasions of sin. They soon come up against these -- and
111  Unic,  39     | self-examination. If these favours come from God, you will do this
112  Unic,  40     |                             But to come to what we are chiefly treating
113  Unic,  40     |           so miserable a creature, come from God, and that it is
114  Unic,  41     |                         Let us now come to the fear of God -- though
115  Unic,  41     |          have, for confidence must come from God. But, when we find
