“We may see a third foundation of his life of prayer in his detachment from the world. If he is lifted up to God, it is at the price of sacrifice. ‘The Lord called him from his birthplace and from his own people.’ And as Our Lord after him, he tastes the bitterness of the lonely world.

God tried His servant in many and difficult ways. He demanded his cooperation, but above all he asked an unquestioning faith, absolute trust in God’s Providence.”

Bl. Titus Brandsma
