Which is far more often than I like to admit, even to myself.
Then I read this (emphasis mine):
What are our real trials? By what name shall we call them? One
cuts herself a cross of pride; another, one of causeless discontent; another,
one of restless impatience or peevish fretfulness. Yet we know certainly
that our God calls us to a holy life, that He gives us every grace, every
abundant grace; and though we are weak ourselves, this grace is able to carry us
through every obstacle and difficulty.
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
