I
keep my eyes fixed on Eternity, and from this source I draw constancy
in the midst of the confusion of daily life. God empties my heart of
all natural attachments, probably to fill it with things more pure,
of which nothing surpasses the desire to do good to my neighbor. I
like to find at least a few moments each day spent in doing good for
others out of love for God. These few moments, almost unnoticeably
used, bring something like rays of peace and comfort behind them.
They unite us with people and God with purity and sweetness.
