Thank God for all the graces He grants you. Do not be so ungrateful as not to recognise them.
You seem to me like a little village girl to whom a mighty king proposes marriage, and who dares not accept because she is not rich enough, nor trained enough in the usage of court; she does not reflect that her royal suitor knows her quality and her weakness much better than she knows it herself.
If you are nothing, you must not forget that Jesus is all, so you must lose your little nothing in His infinite all..........glorifying in your infirmities. In this is found peace and rest for your heart.
