My Child, It Will Be Better For You If You Accept My Decisions Without Complaint. Do Not Ask Me To Defend My Actions Or To Explain Why One Person Is Favored And Another Seems Slighted. The Answers To These Questions Go Far Beyond Your Comprehension.

Blessed Is The Pilgrim, Who In Every Place, And At All Times Of This His Banishment In The Body, Calling Upon The Holy Name Of Jesus, Calleth To Mind His Native Heavenly Land, Where His Blessed Master, The King Of Saints And Angels, Waiteth To Receive Him. Blessed Is The Pilgrim Who Seeketh Not An Abiding Place Unto Himself In This World; But Longeth To Be Dissolved, And Be With Christ In Heaven.

Few Spirits Are Made Better By The Pain And Languor Of Sickness; As Few Great Pilgrims Become Eminent Saints.
