What an amusing kind of progress in the love of God it is, to tie His hands by thinking that He cannot help us except by one path! I know personally some individuals who brought me to understand this truth when I was greatly distressed to see myself with so little time. .......I was thinking to myself, and even said so, that it wasn't possible in the midst of such commotion for the spirit to grow, for at that time they didn't have much spirit. O Lord, how different are your paths from our clumsy imaginings! And how from a soul that is already determined to love You and is abandoned into Your hands, You do not want anything but that it obey, that it inquire well into what is for Your greater service, and that it desire this! There's no need for it to be seeking paths or choosing them, for its will is Yours. You, my Lord take up this care of guiding it to where it receives the most benefit." -St Teresa of Jesus <*}}}>< <http://halfthekingdom.mofuse.mobi/>Half the Kingdom! on your Mobile <*}}}>< <*}}}>< <http://www.halfthekingdom.org/wordpress/>Half the Kingdom!
