Trust, I repeat to you, and let time work. Right now you cannot predict how you will feel tomorrow regarding the preparedness of your heart and your love for God. Therefore, I tell you, it is enough if you let yourself be guided and attentively place your steps each day where Providence indicates. Thus you will come to peace.
(Pierre Teilhard de Chardin SJ /1881–1955/, letter from the front, to his cousin, October 7, 1915;
quoted from the book Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, The Birth of Thought. Letters 1914–1919, 2021)
