Meditation of the Day from the Magnificat:

" It consoles me to hear that contradictions do not upset you, knowing that they must come in this life....It is full of them and to encounter them is good fortune for us, provided we improve the occasion as God means us to do. Be very generous and keep your mind above all that is not God and very humble and submissive to His divine guidance. Take no heed of anything but Him and commit yourself unceasingly into the hands of His loving-kindness and His divine good pleasure.

God's way usually is to make things from which he wishes to draw His glory succeed amidst the most painful difficulties. You should look upon contradictions in the step you are undertaking as a certain proof that His divine Majesty wills you to be His true and perfect servant. But for this, great must be your determination, that the spirit of humility, sweetness, making you supremely grateful to God for the favor He has done you. Then will you taste the sweetness of teh good you possess and become a true daughter of our Blessed Father." St. Jane Frances de Chantal
