I, therefore, pray in Jesus Christ that your goodness does not belittle itself, even if it appears to you that you do not practice virtue with the perfection to which the Holy Spirit calls you, and that you fall into defects that, for the most part, are involuntary. Humble yourself sweetly before God, show him your wounds with a sweet reverence and sorrow, and ask him with daughterly love to medicate them. Then continue to run in the way of the divine precepts.' (St. Paul of the Cross letter 77) |
