Whatever did not fit in with my plan did lie within the plan of God.
I have an ever deeper and firmer belief that nothing is merely an accident when seen in the light of God, that my whole life down to the smallest details has been marked out for me in the plan of Divine Providence and has a completely coherent meaning in God's all-seeing eyes.
And so I am beginning to rejoice in the light of glory wherein this meaning will be unveiled to me.
O my God, fill my soul with holy joy, courage and strength to serve You. Enkindle Your love in me and then walk with me along t he next stretch of road before me. I do not see very far ahead, but when I have arrived where the horizon now closes, a new prospect will open before me, and I shall meet it with peace -
St Teresa's Benedicta of the Cross
