If
only mortals would learn how great it is to possess divine grace, how
beautiful, how noble, how precious. How many riches it hides within
itself, how many joys and delights! No one would complain about his
cross or about troubles that may happen to him, if he would come to
know the scales on which they are weighed when they are distributed
to men.
