For myself I hold that there are many to whom our Lord God gives this test, but few who prepare themselves for enjoyment of the favour of contemplation. When the Lord grants it and we do not fail on our part, I hold it as certain that He never ceases to give until we reach a very high degree.
Saint Teresa of Jesus
