Paul of the Cross on Cleansed...

"...after the storm is cleansed..."

 

 "But God makes me understand that the soul is with him and that he is pleased to see it thus engaged in battle. This is more profitable for the soul for, as a result of what it suffers and endures in the struggle, it is purified like the rock which before the storm may have been covered with debris but after the storm is cleansed because the waves have washed it clean." ~Paul of the Cross' Diary on December 23, 1720 (31 days of Paul's 40 day Castellazzo Retreat in Vol. 1 on Page 15)
