St. Gertrude the Great German Cistercian, mystic, and theologian

Prayer to St. Gertrude the Great
Model of total fidelity to the Heavenly Bridegroom and to your Cistercian Rule, the Lord was pleased to make available wonderful private revelations
through you. Help religious to realize that where there is total generosity,
trials are usually not lacking, but there is also God's infinite love.
Make all religious generous like you. Amen.

"Behold," said Our Saviour, "such is the life which Gertrude, My beloved, leads before My face. She walks ever in My presence, never losing sight of Me for an instant. She has but one desire: to know the good pleasure of My Heart. As soon as she has ascertained this, she executes My will with care and fidelity. Her whole life is an unbroken chain of praise consecrated to My honour and glory." - Vision of St. Mechtilde

Jesus: ...Do not fight against a temptation by yourself, but disclose it to the confessor/priest at once, and then the temptation will lose all its force. Second, during these ordeals do not lose your peace; live in My presence; ask My Mother and the Saints for help. Third, have the certitude that I am looking at you and supporting you. Fourth, do not fear either struggles of the soul or any temptations, because I am supporting you; if only you are willing to fight, know that the victory is always on your side. Fifth, know that by fighting bravely you give Me great glory and amass merits for yourself. Temptation gives you a chance to show Me your fidelity. (1560) - St. Faustina
