I desire to sanctify every beat of my heart, my every thought, my simplest works, by uniting them to Its infinite merits; and I wish to make reparation for my sins by casting them into the furnace of Its merciful love. O my God, I ask of You for myself and for those whom I hold dear the grace to know You, and to know and fulfill perfectly Your holy will, to accept for love of You the joys and sorrows of this passing life, so that we may one day be united together in Heaven for all eternity. Amen.

For they are of a purely spiritual substance and of an immortal nature, immune from the sufferings, disease, aging, and death to which corporeal beings are all subject. Their intelligence is such that they are free from all errors and ignorance with respect to knowledge of created things. In addition to this perfectly illuminated light of intelligence, the angels possess a will which is completely and utterly constant, such that it may not be overcome or made to waver by any perturbation or adversity.”–St. Aloysius Gonzaga, p.32 > [!abstract]- Divine Intimacy Meditation > [[317-zeal-for-souls|Meditation #317 — Zeal For Souls]] ## 🏛️ Saint of the Day: Archangels > [!info]+ The Cloud of Witnesses > > > The Archangels St. Gabriel, St. Michael, and St. Raphael share a feast day on September 29th.
