Our souls are nourished by God's presence within us – whether we know it or not. In life, we may go through many upheavals, but the truth is very simple: God is with us, and where God is, there is rest. The soul is quietly nourished by its unseen guest all the while, often so spiritually and intimately that we are unable to see what is happening. Just keep trying to respond to this divine reality in you through acts of faith, hope, and love, patience, kindness, and gentleness.
(Mary David Totah, OSB /1957–2017/, Joy of God)
