story0321-One must be faithful to good resolutions.
When one has received benefits from the Father of lights, through the mediation of Mary or Joseph, one must be grateful; this is one of the most effective means of obtaining new favors.

Happy if, returning to himself, he recognizes his wrongs towards his heavenly benefactor.

story0313-An apparition.
