The secrets of holiness




"Second point in attaining holiness: never lose faith in the Lord. Whatever happens, believe that it happens because of God's goodness. If it is painful, even bad, and therefore willed by forces outside God, think that God permits it out of goodness.


   THE SOULS WHO KNOW HOW TO SEE GOD EVERYWHERE, ALSO KNOW HOW TO CHANGE ALL THINGS INTO ETERNAL CURRENCY. 


Evil things are expired currencies. But if you know how to treat them well, they become legal and buy you the eternal kingdom.


   It is up to you to make good what is not good; to make of trials, temptations, misfortunes - which completely ruin souls already crumbling - props and foundations to build the temple that does not die. The temple of God in you in the present, the temple of beatitude in the future, in my Kingdom".


Maria Valtorta
