You do not wait with folded hands
for the cup of coffee to cool down
to the required warmth; you ask for
an extra cup and you start pouring
the coffee from one cup to the other, is it not?
The same anxiety, the same spiritual practices
has to be shown in spiritual matters also,
to take in the beverage of Divine Grace...
Cultivate the virtues of reverence and humility...
the more we subject ourselves to discipline,
the more joy and peace we can enjoy.
