Being prepared for the Cross

Here I am in Rome embracing the Holy Cross for my beloved Jesus. I already forsee many trials, but I trust that in God we will overcome all of them. Next week the Constitutions go to the Sacred Congregation. I don’t know what the outcome will be, but I hope it will be good. I am not prepared for anything except for strong and close embraces of the Holy Cross. [From the Letters of St. Paul of the Cross]
