85 Life, XIII | oneself to undertake great things, though we may not have
86 Life, XIII | words of St. Paul: "That all things are possible in God."188
87 Life, XIII | saw clearly that in most things, though I was really very

113 Life, XX | detachment in spirit from all things, it seems that in this of
114 Life, XX | singular estrangement from the things of earth is wrought, which
115 Life, XX | itself, and above all created things. God then so strips it of
116 Life, XX | itself, and above all created things; for it seems to me to have
117 Life, XX | whatever to deal with outward things, there remains the power
118 Life, XX | seeing; but it is as if the things heard and seen were at a
119 Life, XX | clearly how lightly are the things of this world to be esteemed,
120 Life, XX | really the way in which these things come to pass; if the raptures
121 Life, XX | now they see it pretend to things of so high an order; for
122 Life, XX | upwards above all created things, and chiefly above itself:
123 Life, XX | gained by abandoning all things.~35. What is there that
124 Life, XX | eyes are shut against the things of this world, and open

130 Life, XXII | Their Not Ascending to High Things if Our Lord Does Not Raise
131 Life, XXII | spirit above all created things, and raising it upwards
132 Life, XXII | near me, I see all good things together. No trial befalls
133 Life, XXII | Lord is He by whom all good things come to us; He will teach
134 Life, XXII | case; for when we have many things to do, when we are persecuted
135 Life, XXII | easy, and we shall do great things in a very short time, and
136 Life, XXII | detach himself from all things, and esteem this grace according
137 Life, XXIII | me, he told me that these things were inconsistent one with
138 Life, XXIII | should be advised to keep things secret; and it is necessary,
139 Life, XXIII | much harm; for they made things known which might well have
140 Life, XXIV | to make a change in many things, though my confessor never
141 Life, XXIV | through with certain things, of which those who knew
142 Life, XXIV | to say so. Yet, in those things which were of obligation,
143 Life, XXIV | to please ./. Him in all things, I began the hymn; and as
144 Life, XXIV | so great as to leave all things for God, who in one moment—
145 Life, XXV | His will, Who can do all things. We should understand that
146 Life, XXV | from God. I have been told things two or three years beforehand,
147 Life, XXV | deceived. There are also other things in which the Spirit of God
148 Life, XXV | stand amazed at some of the things we understand. So it is;
149 Life, XXV | those who love Thee! All things fail; but Thou, Lord of
150 Life, XXV | vanities,—for all the things of this world are so utterly
151 Life, XXVI | most high, who can do all things, and subjects all things
152 Life, XXVI | things, and subjects all things to Himself. There is nothing
153 Life, XXVI | are prophecies of future things, three or four years beforehand;
154 Life, XXVI | The safest course in these things is to declare, without fail,
155 Life, XXVI | and not speak of these things to any one, on the ground
156 Life, XXVI | more at large of certain things, I wish now to go on with
157 Life, XXVII | according to His will in all things. I saw that by this way
158 Life, XXVII | suspicion that we have imagined things we think we see; but here,
159 Life, XXVII | Thee, to look upon vile things again! and may they have
160 Life, XXVII | understanding.~20. Many other things I should like to say of
161 Life, XXVII | great a reward!" with other things. A year before ./. his
162 Life, XXVII | I have recommended many things to him that he was to ask
163 Life, XXVIII | Those who understand these things better than I do, say that
164 Life, XXVIII | once—I had fancied these things; so I was distressed, because
165 Life, XXVIII | head that I invented those things for the purpose of tormenting
166 Life, XXVIII | God, is mighty, can do all things, commands all things, governs
167 Life, XXVIII | all things, commands all things, governs all things, and
168 Life, XXVIII | all things, governs all things, and fills all things with
169 Life, XXVIII | all things, and fills all things with His love.~15. This
170 Life, XXVIII | visions are very different things; and even he who shall have
171 Life, XXVIII | had experience of these things; for it is the most impossible
172 Life, XXVIII | impossible of all impossible things that all this may be the
173 Life, XXVIII | misunderstood my meaning in many things. I had a great regard for
174 Life, XXVIII | become of me. There were some things that were enough to take
175 Life, XXIX | greater bliss than all created things could give me.441~19. I
176 Life, XXX | penance.443 Among other things, I have been assured that
177 Life, XXX | its rigour, and did those things besides of which I spoke
178 Life, XXX | to accept relief in some things from her, because in many
179 Life, XXX | occasionally, by means of things so trivial that I should
180 Life, XXX | but only on indifferent things, considering what is going
181 Life, XXXI | who serve Him can do great things; and I believe the sisters
182 Life, XXXI | I were to speak of these things in detail.~10. May this
183 Life, XXXI | the thought that, as these things came back to my memory,
184 Life, XXXI | buried alive than have these things known. And so, when I began
185 Life, XXXI | I afraid of? one of two things must happen—people would
186 Life, XXXI | time. I had heard great things of that other house, which
187 Life, XXXI | prayer; with many other things of the same kind. The disposition
188 Life, XXXI | losing it; so it is in those things which concern our good name,
189 Life, XXXI | cannot succeed, for these things are inconsistent one with
190 Life, XXXI | give up our rights in many things. Some will say, I have nothing
191 Life, XXXI | helps us on towards greater things; and so it happened to me
192 Life, XXXI | recounting amid so many evil things, when I am recounting the
193 Life, XXXII | people speaking of these things, and I have at other times
194 Life, XXXII | take any pleasure in those things which led me directly to
195 Life, XXXII | and abstained from certain things which I know the world makes
196 Life, XXXII | learned other great and hidden things which our Lord, of His goodness,
197 Life, XXXII | our Lord would order these things by other ways, and be gracious
198 Life, XXXIII | had gained of supernatural things. And God, too, brought him
199 Life, XXXIII | him, or had heard great things of him, it would have been
200 Life, XXXIII | as well as in many other things beside. As soon as I began
201 Life, XXXIV | hate the pleasures and the things of this life. And so he
202 Life, XXXIV | experience in spiritual things: that is a gift of God,
203 Life, XXXIV | that in outward and inward things, in the order of nature,
204 Life, XXXIV | reason; and in supernatural things, according to the teaching
205 Life, XXXIV | think it impossible: all things are possible to our Lord;505
206 Life, XXXIV | given him light in many things, so has he laboured to find
207 Life, XXXIV | Lord has told me wonderful things of him and of the Rector
208 Life, XXXIV | learned of our Lord certain things which I had formerly understood
209 Life, XXXIV | But there were greater things made known of him to whom
210 Life, XXXIV | understood till we have left all things; for if anybody is attached
211 Life, XXXIV | much joy. He did also other things greatly to the honour of
212 Life, XXXIV | whatever,—much more in things of this importance,—to
213 Life, XXXIV | what light I could in all things. I made her go frequently
214 Life, XXXV | bred confusion, with other things in praise of poverty; and
215 Life, XXXV | that to live away from all things in this life is to live
216 Life, XXXV | all natural reason, all things are possible: so that thou
217 Life, XXXV | but love Thee, and not the things of the world, are not enough
218 Life, XXXVI | was troubled by so many things, that I suspected my cross
219 Life, XXXVI | of the bishop, with other things of that kind. This was of
220 Life, XXXVI | resign it. He said some other things also. The same night, the
221 Life, XXXVI | time I saw him, among other things, when speaking of the greatness
222 Life, XXXVII | must be silent about those things they dislike, must not even
223 Life, XXXVII | those who look upon these things as touching their honour.
224 Life, XXXVIII| and my mother. I saw other things also; but the time was no
225 Life, XXXVIII| St. Paul!—she sees the things of heaven; or a St. Jerome.
226 Life, XXXVIII| counts as nothing all the things of this life. I wish I could
227 Life, XXXVIII| light, nor any one of the things which our Lord showed me
228 Life, XXXVIII| Lord showing me wonderful things. He seemed as if He would
229 Life, XXXVIII| appreciation whatever of such things, provided our Lord did not
230 Life, XXXVIII| spirit, and the vision of things so high, in these trances
231 Life, XXXVIII| possession of these good things. We put aside the agonies
232 Life, XXXVIII| utterly detached from the things of this life, must die with
233 Life, XXXVIII| easy for us to think of the things of heaven, and to have our
234 Life, XXXVIII| itself far away from those things, that is death.~9. In a
235 Life, XXXVIII| While thinking of these things, my soul was carried away
236 Life, XXXVIII| glory, and told me certain things. He was so given to prayer,
237 Life, XXXVIII| me.~18. I have seen great things of members of the Order
238 Life, XXXVIII| clearly in the vision how all things are vanity, and how hollow
239 Life, XXXVIII| praise Thee, who orderest all things according to the measure
240 Life, XXXVIII| myself, when I call these things to remembrance. If these
241 Life, XXXVIII| will speak no more of these things, because as I have just
242 Life, XXXIX | that our Lord did these things in answer to my prayer;
243 Life, XXXIX | me. May He who can do all things help me!~11. When I was
244 Life, XXXIX | intrinsic vanity of all the things of this life, because of
245 Life, XXXIX | I looked to Him who sees things as they really are, not
246 Life, XXXIX | Now that I speak of seeing things as they really are, I remember
247 Life, XXXIX | a true insight into the things of earth to have to discuss
248 Life, XXXIX | coming from myself, and some things, perhaps, are so altogether.
249 Life, XXXIX | often judge even spiritual things, as we do those of the world,
250 Life, XXXIX | should enable us to leave all things only to please God, if they
251 Life, XXXIX | always bad, even in earthly things; what, then, must they be
252 Life, XXXIX | and pleasures, with other things of the same nature; for
253 Life, XXXIX | net,—at least, all these things labour to ensnare it; more
254 Life, XXXIX | was so detached from all things as I used to be. When I
255 Life, XL | matter; it is one of those things for which thou owest Me
256 Life, XL | our Lord now gave me great things; and I had no suspicion
257 Life, XL | other times I learnt some things without the help of words,
258 Life, XL | clearly than those other things which were told me in words.
259 Life, XL | recover itself even in outward things; for the two powers—the
260 Life, XL | know by experience so many things, and without experience
261 Life, XL | was most clear,—how all things are seen in God and how
262 Life, XL | seen in God and how all things are comprehended in Him.
263 Life, XL | so short a time, so many things together in that brilliant
264 Life, XL | of it, to see such foul things as my sins present in the
265 Life, XL | living,—I, who see such things, and know myself to be what
266 Life, XL | and he has told me certain things, and thanked me for praying
267 Life, XL | to them. Always, in all things, did our Lord console me,
268 Life, XL | mortified nor dead to the things of this world, made me feel
269 Life, XL | doing of His will in all things! May He never suffer this
270 Life, XL | reverence sent for it. Some things in it may not be very clearly
271 Life, XL | reverence will do in all things that which to you shall

273 Rel, I(622) | will of God our Lord in all things.~"5. Everything herein is
274 Rel, I(622) | She has asked much, and things not convenient to put on
275 Rel, I(622) | virtues, and learns by these things the way of a higher perfection.
276 Rel, I(622) | 15. These supernatural things occur after long praying,
277 Rel, I(622) | quieted and directed in these things.~"23. The sweetnesses she
278 Rel, I(622) | admirable illumination in the things of God.~"33. It was said
279 Rel, I | not even thinking of the things of God, but engaged in other
280 Rel, I | desires, now by hearing other things, it would seem to be impossible
281 Rel, I | body, I might do very great things, so far as my strength would
282 Rel, I | see I cannot forego these things, being less able to do so
283 Rel, I | As to fine and beautiful things, such as water, fields,
284 Rel, I | to be fond, and worldly things, are all disagreeable to
285 Rel, I | seemingly cautious in those things, the doing of which is perfectly
286 Rel, I | make them undertake such things as these which now frighten
287 Rel, I | apply themselves to great things, and that He never abandons
288 Rel, I | see plainly that in these things which God sends me I have
289 Rel, I | 19. When I speak of these things a few days after, they seem
290 Rel, I | great and so clear that the things of the world seem to be
291 Rel, I | demeaned myself formerly in the things of the world, for it seems
292 Rel, I | person. In this way these things never weary me, except generally:
293 Rel, I | only when I am busy with things of importance; and such—
294 Rel, I | improvement.~27. All these things of which I am speaking make
295 Rel, I | certainly is astonished at these things, without knowing whence
296 Rel, I | do not believe that these things would have been permitted
297 Rel, II | more detached from the things of this life, more courageous,
298 Rel, II | seems to have wrought great things in me; for I would willingly
299 Rel, II | I find peace.~6. Certain things, about which I have been
300 Rel, II | am not a woman in these things, for I have a hard heart.~
301 Rel, II | for I am as one that sees things far higher than I can understand,
302 Rel, II | being as I was, before these things happened to me, a sea of
303 Rel, III | a good intention in all things, and detachment; lift up
304 Rel, III | in imagining that those things which are peculiar to the
305 Rel, III | declining them. I order things according to what I know
306 Rel, IV | said to me, among other things: "Thou beholdest Me present,
307 Rel, IV | course of thy life." By some things He said to me, I understood
308 Rel, V | raised up above all the things of earth, with nothing remaining
309 Rel, V | and in detachment from all things, occupied in God in such
310 Rel, V | so that of all created things there is but one sole Creator.
311 Rel, V | ventured upon difficult things, though always with advice
312 Rel, V | relating to prayer. These things are to be treated of out
313 Rel, VI | to have one mind in all things, for so it was fitting.
314 Rel, VI | obligation did not extend to things of little importance,—
315 Rel, VI | repeated my request,—nor to things relating to my convenience.
316 Rel, VII | supernatural, but only of created things, or of such subjects as
317 Rel, VII | how soon the end of all things must come, discerning in
318 Rel, VII | It was a sort of making things present when she saw these
319 Rel, VII | present when she saw these things interiorly; they passed
320 Rel, VII | was as if she saw those things with her bodily eyes, and
321 Rel, VII | her when he heard of these things, till after he had conversed
322 Rel, VII | she never spoke of these things, and it was more painful
323 Rel, VII | at her,686 and that these things were womanish imaginations,
324 Rel, VII | instruction in spiritual things; and they commanded her
325 Rel, VII | that he might discuss these things with certain learned men,
326 Rel, VII | to which, before these things took place, she had been
327 Rel, VII | many years before these things began. He was a very learned
328 Rel, VII | when, as to these spiritual things, she could not obey them.
329 Rel, VII | say that, if any of these things tended to lead her against
330 Rel, VII | they told her that these things came from God, she never
331 Rel, VII | with them, because these things are not in the power of
332 Rel, VII | would believe that these things came from God, for she was
333 Rel, VII | any one timid about these things, to him she laid bare her
334 Rel, VII | purpose of trying her, these things were treated with contempt,
335 Rel, VII | her to make any of these things known, but to be always
336 Rel, VII | could not think so. These things were not continual, but
337 Rel, VII | and doing His will in all things; this is her continual prayer.
338 Rel, VII | considering how vile are the things of this world, and how precious
339 Rel, VII | how precious are interior things, with which nothing can

341 Rel, VII | conceive here, as there are things which men, however learned
342 Rel, VIII | Alvarez.~1. These interior things of the spirit are so difficult
343 Rel, VIII | especially in such difficult things. I implore you, my father,
344 Rel, VIII | the root of supernatural things; for that which relates
345 Rel, VIII | very different state of things; for they can then do ./.
346 Rel, VIII | sweetness are so high above all things that may be compared therewith
347 Rel, VIII | the contempt for all the things of the world.~10. The difference
348 Rel, VIII | gradually dies to outward things, losing the senses and living
349 Rel, VIII | my memory that I forget things at once. It seems to me
350 Rel, VIII | immediately think I was imagining things, and that I must be in a
351 Rel, VIII | never been curious about things, and I do not care to know
