Wisdom from St. Claude de la Colombière

 
 
 

If you fall under the stress of temptation, rise promptly, ask God’s pardon, hope in him in spite of your fall, and with all your heart welcome the humiliation and detest the sin. Your uncertainty as to whether you sin or not is another cross that you must also bear with perfect resignation.

—St. Claude de la Colombière

from his book The Spiritual Direction of St. Claude de la Colombière
