Remember also the teaching of the Fathers of the spiritual life that not to advance in perfection is to go back. It is in the midst of combat and contemplation that virtue is perfected. Fill your soul with the seeds of grace, wisdom and the judgements of the Spirit of God to accomplish the design of the Christian and religious perfection that the Lord has for you.
–Saint Joan Antide-Thouret (1765-1826)
