The more we see that any action springs not from the motive of obedience, the more evident is it that it is a temptation of the enemy; for when God sends an inspiration, the very first effect of it is to infuse a spirit of docility.
Teresa of AvilaIf God should desire to raise us to the position of one who is an intimate and shares his secrets, we ought to accept this gladly.
Teresa of Avila
