I want you to believe that truly nothing happens to us except by God’s
will and permission – death or life, sickness or health, riches or poverty,
even the wrongs done us by friends or relatives or anyone else. Not a leaf falls from a tree without his
consent. So not only should you not fear
this thing – because God gives
us what we can bear, and no more – but let’s accept it with reverence, dearest
sister, considering ourselves unworthy of so great a good as to put up with
hardship for the Lord.
Jesus to St. Catherine of Siena
