"Happiness is good but unstable, being dependent on a variety of things more or less outside our power. Peace is the greater gift of the two, and one we can acquire, and hold when we have acquired it. Peace is a loving trust in God that what He does is best for us and for those dear to us; it is a childlike nestling in the protecting arms of the Father -- and who shall say that this is not happiness also?"
~ Maol Iosa, At the Master's Feet, imprimatur 1936.
Let us trust God like a child trusts his or her parent...with love and cheerful abandon!
