“Corporal maladies are advantageous to us when we suffer them for the love of God and with conformity to His holy will. We prove thereby that the soul, the nobler part of our being, is in perfect health.”
– St. Louise de Marillac

Physical illness reminds me of my great dependence on You, Lord. At such times my prayer will be to accept whatever comes as a blessing and not a curse. May Your holy will be done in me!
