THE
POWER OF PRESSURE
If there is a brother
who is naturally very patient gentle and kind, he has only his natural virtues. God will
allow his friends, relatives, and co-workers to oppress him, pierce him, take advantage of
him, and hurt him until, being unable to contain himself, he will lose his temper. Then he
will realize that his natural virtues are inadequate because they cannot
pass through death. This is a great test. If he will lift up his head to God at these
times and say to Him, "God, my patience has run out: manifest Your patience in
me," he will be amazed to find patience in the midst of all the death situations.
This is resurrection.
