"Exalt joy as we may - and there is surely no joy to be compared to that of the Christian adventure - it is not to the pilgrim in quest for joy, but to the lover of the cross, bent on sacrifice, that the secret of the Lord is revealed."*
Lord, give us your joy, I pray!
(*From Creative Prayer, quoted in The Divine Hours: Prayers for Springtime, p. 136)
