They live in a kind of frustration that is never relieved. There is darkness in tomorrow and the present moment is lived in the shadow of yesterday. Their entire lives are spent between dusk and mid night for they never see the dawn of new horizons or the bright sun of God's love and providence. The present moment has God within it to give us peace, sorrow that builds up courage, demands that make us virtuous and joy to take the edge off bad situations. Our trust in God must reach heroic stages if we are to be holy.
Heroism is constant fidelity to our state in life.
In what is happening, is to strive for holiness. We are to become through Grace, what Jesus is by nature, a son of God. We are to be faithful because He is always in the midst of everything. He only waits for us to ask so He may give Himself to us. He desires us to do our part, to exercise our talents, to see Him in everything and everyone.
