Why do you fear sufferings when the Lord has assured us that not one of our hairs can fall without our Heavenly Fathers permission? He is the Beneficent as the church calls Him in all prayers; therefore we submit to Him our lives. If He allows temptations it is for our own good just as the clay surrenders to the hands of the potter. Even if we enter the oven it is sufficient that the eyes of the Potter are on us all the time.
