"...Never leave off holy prayer and the reading of holy books and the presence of God at your work. Be happy that God is purifying you as gold in the furnace..." ~Paul of the Cross to Francis Appiani (Appiani's 1st letter on November 22, 1735 in Vol. 1 on Page 114 for Paul's Letter 89)

"Do not refuse work even though it seems that you cannot do it. Let all find compassion in you." ~John of the Cross "Maxims on Love"
