Today’s quote:
We have to work at being open to God’s Will by detaching ourselves from our judgment, our will, our inclinations, and anything that’s not God. It’s an active virtue, and, if it doesn’t act, it’s not virtue. We have to work at it, my dear confreres. We have to exert ourselves often, always.
Vincent de Paul (Volume: 12 | Page#: 194) Indifference, 15 May, 1659
What is the difference between God’s will and my will?
