You can't sleep, you want to evaluate everything, to investigate everything, to think about everything, and so you trust in human powers, or – what is worse – you trust only in human intervention. And that hinders the plans I have for you. How I long for true abandonment, so that I can show you my goodness. How it saddens me to see you troubled. That is what the devil strives for, to trouble you, to provoke you, to hide you from my influence and leave you at the mercy of human actions. Lean on me, confide in me everything! I perform miracles in proportion to your trust, not to your worries.
(Don Dolindo Ruotolo /1882–1970/, act of abandonment)
