[Solitude with God] is to make you grow in his love, and not to set you apart from his brothers and sisters, who are your brothers and sisters too. Often you will have to be ready to break the silence you have grown to love so as to receive someone who comes to knock at your door, no matter how inconvenient or unrewarding his visit may seem to you. In every person you welcome, you welcome Jesus.
Little Sister Magdeleine (1898–1989)
