and retrospect shows that everything was patchwork and much that one had planned left undone, when so many things rouse shame and regret, then take all as is, lay it in God’s hands, and offer it up to Him. In this way, we will be able to rest in Him, actually to rest and to begin the new day like a new life.”- St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross
For Reflection:
Ah, thank you St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross! What now may I “lay at God’s hands and offer up to Him,” that I might “rest and begin the new day like a new life?”
