“… the mortification of one’s own will [Sir. 18:30].
It consists of concealing, as far as possible, from the eyes of men, the works that you do [Mt. 6:4].
The true servant of God is content to know that his services are known to the Heavenly Father.
You must prepare yourselves to receive all things, evil as well as good, with an equal resignation and even with gaiety of heart [Deut. 30:15; Phil. 4:4].
Be good, therefore, and charitable to your neighbour [Mk. 12:31];
be humble and patient in yourselves [Lk. 21:19].”
– Jesus to Bl. Anna Maria Taigi (p. 52, ‘Wife, Mother and Mystic,’ by Albert Bessieres, S.J., TAN Books)
