Invest in the glory of God and the salvation of mankind

June 28

The time dedicated to the glory of God and the salvation of souls, do not regret ever, is never time wasted. Do not worry, therefore, to steal my time, because time very well spent, as I said, is the one used procuring the salvation and sanctification of the souls of others. And I do not know how to thank the mercy of the heavenly Father when I presented souls, which I can help somehow.Oh, yes, would have liked to heaven the whole time of my life would have used in this holy ministry, because I look so deformed in the eyes of the Almighty!  (May 31, 1914, to Raffaelina Cerase - Letters. II, p. 100)
