" If I feel alone and abandoned, Scripture demands: “Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you” (Isa 49:15). If I feel that God is absent, it reassures me: “I am with you always, until the end of the age” (Mt 28:20). If I feel crushed by my sin, it tells me: “Your sins I remember no more!” (Isa 43:25). If I feel I lack what it takes to make progress, the Psalms invite me to make this act of faith: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want” (Ps 23:1). "
