Message from St. Rita of Cascia given to Visionary Maureen Sweeney-Kyle in North Ridgeville, USA

St. Rita of Cascia says: "Praise be to Jesus."

"Before I close my dialogue with you on Mother Perseverance, I would be derelict if I did not mention a sister virtue to perseverance, which is forbearance. Forbearance is the courageous constraint of emotional reaction in ongoing difficulties. It is the showcase of patience - patient endurance. While perseverance can be practiced interiorly in the virtuous life, forbearance is the outward sign of inner courage in exterior trials."

"Forbearance is a special gift of grace given to the patient, persevering soul."
