“Don’t let yourself succumb, I beg you, to the perpetual fear that you’re doing nothing worthy of your life or commensurable with your wishes or God’s grace. I believe that you’re doing a great deal — much more than we can see. But is there any point in worrying about this? Isn’t it enough to foster large ambitions within ourselves and try loyally to achieve them, to have the right to rely on God to grant them ultimate success? In every context, you must try harder . . . to lose yourself in God — so completely that you no longer even want to know whether you are doing much or little in this world — your sole happiness being the feeling that He is within you, at the beginning and the end of every desire and every act.”
– Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, The Making of a Mind; Letters from a Soldier-Priest (p. 198-99);

Hi Robert:
Thank you for your insightful comment. It is a continuing challenge for me to surrender my ego to God. One good thing is that at my level of development, I have lots of room for improvement and closer union :-).
