Above all, trust in the slow work of God.
We are quite naturally impatient in everything to reach the end without delay, . . . impatient of being on the way . . .
But only God could say what this new spirit gradually forming within you will be. . . .
Give Our Lord the benefit of believing that his hand is leading you,
and accept the anxiety of feeling yourself in suspense and incomplete . . .”
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
