Man\u2019s adversity is God\u2019s opportunity.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You must renew your faith in Divine Providence, which wisely and miraculously directs and orders everything, even the smallest event, and which brings about our temporal and spiritual well-being<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We cannot do stupid things except when we deviate from obedience to the Rule, since the Rule gives us the surest guarantee for peace and assures the final attainment of our goal and destination. The fact that we sometimes think we would be more at peace and happier if things happened according to our own desires has its origin in the fact that we lack the experience of a life of true freedom, or else those who have had this experience have paid too little attention to it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, we know that no Christian is perfect. None of us is without shortcomings\u2026 There will always be disappointments, but they will never disturb our peace significantly or for a long time. Disappointments will further our salvation, not endanger it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
