St. Vincent de Paul said, “One of the surest signs that God has great plans for someone is when He sends them distress upon distress, trouble upon trouble. The real time to recognize the spiritual mettle of a soul is the time of temptation and tribulation, because the way we are during these trials is the way we usually are afterward.”
