When you have a burning desire to find Christ, do not attach significance to immediate weaknesses. Ignore them. There could also be pride in being angry that we discover these imperfections within ourselves. Now you already know where I would like to lead you. Once you are far enough along in your spiritual life, you will experience that there is no deeper joy than being happy in the awareness that we are weak, that we are nothing, and that God is everything.
(P. Albert Peyriguere /1883–1959/, correspondence, letter from December 7, 1933)
