Obligations Towards God and Our Neighbor

From then on, during her whole life all her thoughts, all her words and all her actions were focused towards this single aim.
Her understanding of the worship of God can be seen clearly in her way of praying, in her collectedness, in her humble attitude, in the mortification she imposed on herself in all circumstances in order to make this attitude more worthy of the presence God, an attitude which impressed everybody who approached her and which led them to God.
