When you have no consolations, you serve God for Himself alone; but when you have them you're liable to serve Him out of love for yourself.

St. John Vianney (1786-1859AD) on Spiritual Consolations

Well timed quote!

Well timed because you're going without consolations. God must think you're a grown up, then. Been so long since I had a consolation, don't know what it would be like.
