St. John of Kronstadt




Thy will be done. For example: when you want to be and do your best to be painless and healthy, and meanwhile you remain sick all the time, say: Thy will be done; when you undertake something, but the enterprise fails, say: Thy will be done; when you do good to others, and you are paid with evil, say: Thy will be done, or when, for example, you want to sleep, and you have insomnia, say: Thy will be done; do not be annoyed at all when something is not done according to your will, and learn to obey the will of the Heavenly Father in everything. You would like that there were no temptations with you, but meanwhile the enemy torments you with them every day: he kindles you, oppresses you in every possible way - do not be irritated, but say: Thy will be done.
