Wisdom from St. John of Kronstadt
Do not fear bodily privations, but fear spiritual privations. Do not fear, do not be faint-hearted, do not be irritated when you are deprived of money, food, drink, enjoyments, clothes, dwelling, even of your body itself; but fear when the enemy deprives your soul of faith, of trust and love for God and neighbour.
Give yourself up entirely to God’s providence, to the Lord’s will… He knows how to lead you safely through this present life and to bring you to Himself – into His Eternal Kingdom.
If the truth of something has been revealed in the Word of God, has been investigated and explained to us by the divinely enlightened minds of the Saints, whom God has glorified, and has been recognized by the heart in its light and life-giving effect, then it is a great sin and diabolical pride of the intellect and heart to doubt it and to be perplexed about it.
