..aconsejaría yo a los que tienen oración, en especial al principio, procuren amistad y trato con otras personas que traten de lo mismo. Es cosa importantísima, aunque no sea sino ayudarse unos a otros con sus oraciones, ¡cuánto más que hay muchas más ganancias! Y no sé yo por qué no se ha de permitir que quien comenzare de veras a amar a Dios y a servirle, deje de tratar con algunas personas sus placeres y trabajos, que de todo tienen los que tienen oración.

About This Quote

“I would advise that the one who prays, especially in the beginning, should try to get along with other people. It is a very important thing, but it is not enough only to help one another with their prayers. How much better you do when you help others with your prayers! I don’t know why it is not permitted for someone who really begins to love God and serve Him, to not let go of some of his pleasure and work. That has everything the person who prays has.”
