“I will see the hand of God in all that happens to me,
attributing nothing to individual people, who are but instruments used by Him in the work of my sanctification.”

~Blessed Raphaela Mary

For Reflection:

How often I look at those that irritate me, annoy me, or persecute me in some way, as my enemies. Here, Blessed Raphaela Mary gives me new insight! They are the greatest friends of my soul, giving me opportunity to grow in holiness. How can I respond to this insight today?
