“Would that mortal men might know how wonderful
is divine grace, how beautiful, how precious; what riches are hidden
therein, what treasures, what joys, what delights. If they but knew,
surely they would direct their energy with all care and diligence to
procuring sufferings and afflictions for themselves. Instead of good
fortune all men everywhere would seek out troubles, illness and
suffering that they might obtain the inestimable treasure of grace. This
is the final profit to be gained from patient endurance. No one would
complain about the cross or about hardships coming seemingly by chance
upon him, if he realized in what balance they are weighed before being
distributed to men.”
