Trials

Their positive side

March 2nd 2024

Instead of blaming everyone else for your difficulties, and even rebelling against God himself, reflect, meditate, and you will discover that these trials have a positive side.

The only way to love them is by discovering that they are friends in disguise, sent to us by Providence, to make us advance along the path of self-mastery and freedom.*
