| (My Way of Life) |
By meditation man perceives that he can find his
true place in the universe and his real happiness only through the surrender of
himself to God. In meditation man
perceives the goodness and kindness of God to himself, and this begets love,
which is the cause of devotion. Through
meditation man also perceives his shortcomings and unworthiness, which leads
him to lean on the strength of God for his salvation, and so to submit himself
to God. The knowledge of his own defects
may make a man sad, but the knowledge of God's goodness gives him joy.
