Just for Today, August 4

I must be content with the light of true faith, and walk therein till the day of eternal brightness breaks forth, and the shades of figures pass away.
-Bk. IV, ch. xi.
________________

"I have asked Almighty God to send me a beautiful dream to console me for your loss."

"That is a thing I should never have done. To think of your asking for consolations! As you want to re­semble me, remember that I say: Fear not, I shall not waken Thee, O Lord, my soul in peace awaits eternal day. What a blessed thing it is to serve God in trials and in the night; we have only this life in which to live by faith!"
-Conseils et Souvenirs.
