Ordeals - become richer because of them
While we are on earth we cannot escape hardships, so, once and for all, decide to put to use those methods which will enable you to confront these trials more successfully. First, in the face of each difficulty, instead of complaining and crying out, begin by calming yourself. Then reflect and ask yourself:‘What have the Lord and all my heavenly friends planned for me? What do they want me to achieve?' Gradually a light will dawn, and you will understand that they want you to become hardier, more patient and more intelligent. In doing so, not only do you cease to worry or rebel, but you even become grateful. You give thanks because you sense that in these trials you discover materials that enrich you. As for the virtues that heaven is urging you to acquire, with this attitude you obtain them much more rapidly.
