Accept the dryness of prayer, the inability to pray, the cold relationship with God. Just say your "yes" to all of this; let you feel in everything the hand of our Lord, who attracts you more and more to Himself and frees you from everything that is not Him. Also know that we love Him most and most surely when we suffer greatly from the fact that we do not love Him.
(P. Albert Peyriguere /1883–1959/, correspondence, letter of February 14, 1950)
