"Since the creation of Heaven and earth I have worked for the redemption of all, more by the wisdom of My benignity than by the power of My majesty. And this benignity of wisdom shines most in My tolerance towards the imperfect, leading them, even by their own free will, into the way of perfection."

~ Our Lord spoke these words to St. Gertrude

I'm sorry, I have not yet found a new way to send out my "Words of Encouragement", so I'm just posting them here for now until I work it out...
