Be bold in the asking!

“The nation doesn’t simply need what we have.
It needs what we are.” -St. Teresa Benedicta (Edith Stein)

"Take my advice, and in every Mass
ask God to make you a great saint. 
Does this seem too much?  It is not too much. 

Is it not our good Master who declares in the holy gospel
that for a cup of cold water given out of love for Him,
He will, in return, give paradise?
How then while offering God the blood of His most blessed Son,
should He not give you a hundred heavens, were there so many?"

St Leonard of Port Maurice (+1751)
The Hidden Treasure:  Holy Mass
