Real Devotion
This resolution is not the fruit of a passing ardour or of a heated imagination; it is confirmed by innumerable acts of renunciation and mortification, it has its abode in the depths of the will, it persists continually and subconsciously, and the least important acts of life performed in this disposition, which is that of perfect love, are of great value in the eyes of God.
-Saudreau-Bidwell.
