St. Thomas Aquinas says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“Earth is undergoing a metamorphosis that can be effected only by the Hand of God; so it is with every soul that opens his heart to conversion. Just as Spring begins in the Heart of the Father and changes the dormant to new growth through His Divine Will, so too, the conversion of a soul is in the Heart of God first. Then, through His Divine Will, conversion awakens in the soul by the grace of Our Lady's Heart.”

“Just as the little blade of grass awakens and turns green according to God's plan, the soul responds to God's plan by turning to Holy Love. Just as the blade of grass shows outward signs of oncoming Spring, the soul, as well, outwardly becomes more docile and virtuous and begins to resemble the virtue of Holy Love.”

“I am telling you this to help you realize that God's Will embraces everything from the smallest blade of grass to the immortal soul. Nothing occurs outside of His Will. Through God's grace, all things are possible.”

“It is only the soul's failure to respond to conversion through his own free will that keeps him from a powerful conversion experience.”
