Extract

One day at Segovia a picture of Christ spoke to St John of the Cross. ‘“Brother John, ask me for what you wish, and I will give it you for the service you have done me”. And I said to him: “Lord, what I wish you to give me are sufferings to be borne for your sake, and that I may be despised and regarded as worthless”.’
