Angelica. Beautifully converted to digital form by Nancy Collingwood. 8. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma10.htm>The Gift of Life: He Chose Me to Be "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you." (Jer. 1:5) Our minds cannot comprehend how special each soul is to God. We do not understand the dignity that is ours when His Goodness chose each one of us to live, to think, to know, to see, to love. 9. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma11e.htm>The Healing Power of Suffering "The sufferings of this life not only make our temperament more like the Divine Personality of Jesus, but detach us from the things of this world. This Divine preparation opens our souls to the working and pruning of the Father." 10. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma12.htm>Healing Your Faith vs. Faith Healing The prayer of the Christian is always answered, for his prayer is in faith. Mother Angelica shows us what attitude we should have when we ask God for healing. 11. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma13.htm>His Pain - Like Mine Jesus understands what we suffer, because He suffered it before us. And He knows why we're called on to suffer. 12. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma14e.htm>His Silent Presence "Perhaps the secret of all prayer and holiness of life is wrapped in God's plea to listen-to listen to His Silent Presence-that Presence that penetrates our being and keeps us in existence-that Presence that fills our souls with love and serenity-that Presence that makes us strong when we feel weak." 13. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma15.htm>Holiness in Action "In everything that happens, Jesus is sounding the call to holiness." 14. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma17.htm>Holiness Is for Everyone Holiness of life is not the privilege of a chosen few-it is the obligation, the call and the will of God for every Christian. Mother Angelica encourages us in this tract to be holy wherever we are. 15. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma18e.htm>I Am His Temple "The foundation of this Temple is Faith, Hope and Love, and the Seven Gifts are the tools and material used by the Spirit to construct a fit dwelling place for Jesus to abide in." 16. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma19e.htm>In His Sandals Jesus left the glory of Heaven to come down and take upon Himself a nature like my own, because he loves me so much. Mother Angelica shows us how to imitate Christ by practicing the Eight Beatitudes. 17. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma20.htm>In Praise of Goodness "As children of God it is our happy privilege to radiate the goodness of our Father." 18. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma21e.htm>Inside the Kingdom People have argued for centuries about Heaven. Some say it is a place and others say it is a state, but Scripture indicates it is both. It tells us in many places the Kingdom of Heaven is "within" and "among" us. Jesus tells us, "No one has gone up to Heaven except the One who came down from Heaven, "the Son of Man who is in Heaven." 19. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma23.htm>Jesus My Savior God's Will is that we are all saved-that we imitate Jesus in our daily lives -that we accomplish His holy and perfect Will-that we see His Providence in the present moment- and that we love our neighbor in the way He loves him. 20. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma24e.htm>Excerpts from<http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma24e.htm> Jesus Needs Me Every baptized person "is a powerhouse for good in a wicked world by reason of the grace of God that dwells in his soul." 21. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma25e.htm>Journey Into Prayer The word "Prayer means many things to many people. To some it means asking for "things" — for health or success. To others, it means repentance, imploring God's Mercy for their sins and infidelities. Prayer is Praise and Thanksgiving to many and to the majority it is a cry in times of distress. 22. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma28e.htm>Knowing God's Will Excerpts from TWO WILLS — HIS AND MINE "The difficulty most of us experience is not so much in doing God's Will as in simply knowing what that Will is for us." In this tract Mother Angelica gives us some direction in discovering what God's Will is for our life. 23. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma29e.htm>Living Prayer "We are often the cause of our own misery and unhappiness and we run from place to place looking for relief and find none. In our effort to acquire peace of mind we do not see the real cause of our uneasiness-a lack of compassion and humility." 24. <http://www.ewtn.com/library/mother/ma31.htm>The Living Sacrament - Matrimony Mother Angelica writes on the Sacrament of Matrimony.
