"Blessed Angela of Foligni said that our Lord revealed to her that there was no kind of good deed more pleasing to Him than the ones we force ourselves to do, that is to say, the ones that a firmly resolved will accomplishes in spite of the languor of the flesh and the repugnance of our lower selves and in the face of dryness, sorrow, and interior dereliction. How happy you will be if you are faithful amid the crosses that present themselves to you, faithful to the One who loved you so faithfully 'unto death, even death on a cross' (Phil 2:8)" ~St. Francis de Sales |
