The value system of Jesus is based on the trust in God and on the belief in the goodness of life independently of the adversities. - Step by Step Retreats, step 12
Oh, how I struggle of late with the second part of this. I feel consumed by the adversities. Even though I believe that God is using them to teach me the depth of his love, it feels as if they are eating away all my joy.
It's weird. I seem to have this gift for trusting God with my life at the same time that I struggle to always fully believe in him. Perhaps this is simply a matter of God being greater than my faith in him, which of course he would have to be.
