Speaking
Development
Once I said to God, “How do you teach us?”
And He replied,
If you were
Playing chess with someone who
Had infinite power and infinite knowledge
And wanted to make you a
Master of the game,
Where would all the chess
Pieces be at every
Moment?
Indeed, not only where he wanted them,
But where all were best for your
Development;
And that is every situation
Of one’s
Life.”
~ St. John of the Cross
