The Everlasting God has in His
wisdom foreseen from eternity the cross that He now presents to you as a gift
from His innermost heart. This cross He now sends you is considered with His
all-knowing eyes, understood with His divine mind, tested with His wise
justice, warmed with loving arms and weighed with His own hands, to see that it
be not one inch too large and not one ounce too heavy for you. He has blessed
it with His Holy Name, anointed it with His grace, perfumed it with His
consolation, taken one last look at you and your courage, and then sent it to
you from heaven, a special greeting from God to you, an alms of the
all-merciful love of God. Prayer of St. Francis de Sales
