God sent forth Gabriel, to a virgin, She was to Joseph, his wife to be "Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee! "Be not afraid - favored daughter of God." "Behold, you will conceive in your womb, And b ear a son, and shall call him, "Jesus" He will reign over Jacob's house forever, Of his kingdom, there will be no end." "Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee! "Be not afraid - favored daughter of God." "How shall this be, how can I conceive?" Troubled, with tears in her eyes.

Luke 6: 36 - 38 Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful. "Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For the measure you give will be the measure you get back."

The field of battle between God and Satan is the human soul. It is in the soul that the battle rages every moment of life. The soul must give free access to the Lord so that it may be fortified by Him in every repect and with all kinds of weapons; that His light may enlighten it to combat the darkness of error; that it may be clothed with Jesus Christ. To be clothed with Jesus Christ it is necessary to die to oneself. That which comes from Satan begins with calmness and ends in storm, indifference, and apathy. In the spiritual life he who does not advance goes backward. It happens as with a boat which always must go ahead. If it stands still the wind blows it back. Fix the time, the length of your meditation, and do not rise from your place until you have finished even at the cost of being crucified. -- Saint Pio of Pietrelcina
