Meditation:
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for
you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let
steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete,
lacking in nothing. – James 1:2-4
(ESV)
Quotation:
Be not afraid that thou art tempted, for the more thou art assailed by
temptations, the greater friend and servant of God do I hold thee, and the
greater love do I bear thee. Verily, I say to thee, let no man deem
himself the perfect friend of God until he have passed through many
temptations and tribulations... I am ready to endure patiently all things
that my Lord would do with me.
– Ugolino of Montegiorgio,
The Little Flowers of St. Francis
Quiet time reflection:
Lord, I do not greet trials with joy. May You straighten my heart out
so that this Scripture becomes true in me as well.
