Venerable Thecla Merlo as testified by Blessed Alberione

"The life of Mother Thecla Merlo was completely 
in the hands of God. 
Her words were: 
The will of the Lord; whatever pleases the Lord; 
may the Lord's will be done. 
She was ready to do anything for Him!" 
- Blessed James Alberione, ssp

Blessed James Alberione and his Thoughts

"What am I to do, Lord?" 
These words point to Paul's complete conversion 
as well as his absolute readiness 
to carry out God's will. 
Real holiness is to be found specifically in conformity to God's will 
and in complete self-abandonment!" 
- Blessed James Albeione, ssp

Venerable Thecla Merlo and her Thoughts

"I want this year to be a year of holiness for me, 
whether I complete the year or not. 
May my every breath, every feeling, every heartbeat, 
every internal and external movement 
be for you, my God." 
(Venerable Thecla Merlo, fsp)
