“Before we had this true fear of God worldly people would have been poisonous to us and would have helped to ruin our souls; but now they will often help us to love God more and to praise Him for having delivered us from what we see to be a notorious danger. And whereas we for our part may previously have helped to foster their weakness, we shall now be helping to repress them, because they will restrain themselves in our presence, and this is a compliment which they will pay us without our desiring it.” Teresa Of AvilaWorldly PeopleSt Teresa Of Avila QuoteThe Way Of Perfection Book:The Way of Perfection Source: The Way of Perfection
