Be not high-minded, but rather confess thine ignorance. - Thomas à Kempis

As it is written, To him that overcometh I will give to eat of the tree of life. Divine comfort is given that a man may be stronger to bear adversities.

My Son, patience and humility in adversities are more pleasing to Me than much comfort and devotion in prosperity.

Even though Thou dost expose me to divers temptations and adversities, Thou ordainest all this unto my advantage, for Thou are wont to prove Thy beloved ones in a thousand ways.
