Gather yourself, continuously present your worries to Him, ask for strength to persevere. Above all, practice the habit of being in constant communion with God and forget Him as little as possible. Pray to Him in your weakness, occasionally offer yourself to Him. Especially in the most painful hours of your suffering, humbly and lovingly ask Him – as a child asks their father – to show you His grace and make you willing to submit to His holy will. I will help you with my poor prayers.
(St. Lawrence of the Resurrection, correspondence, letter no. 13)
