You have only one reward: God himself. When God asked Saint Thomas Aquinas: “You have written well of me, Thomas; what reward do you desire?” Saint Thomas replied, “Only you, Lord.” (Cardinal Van Thuan, Five Loaves and Two Fish)

Reflection

Let nothing trouble you.
Let nothing scare you,
all is fleeting,
God alone is unchanging.
Patience
everything obtains.
Who possesses God
nothing wants.
God alone suffices. (St. Theresa of Avila)
