attempting trust

“Therefore I will trust Him. Whatever, wherever I am, I can never be thrown away. If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him; in perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him; if I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him. My sickness, or perplexity, or sorrow may be necessary causes of some great end, which is quite beyond us." 
~ Blessed John Henry Newman 


Blessed John Henry Newman, pray for me, 
that I might always trust Him as you did!  

 A great meditation on this saint by His Excellency David Zubik, 
Bishop of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, found here.
