I pray God may open your
eyes and let you see what hidden treasures he bestows on us in the trials from
which the world thinks only to flee. Shame turns into honor when we seek God’s
glory. Present affliction becomes the source of heavenly glory. To those who
suffer wounds in fighting his battles God opens his arms in loving, tender
friendship, which is more delightful by far than anything our earthly efforts
might produce. If we have any sense, we shall yearn for these open arms of God.
Saint John of Ávila
