Lay Catholic artist, writer, poet and mystic, Caryll Houselander, leaves no doubt that the person who desires to advance spiritually in this earthly life must come to understand and conform his/her life to the truths set forth below:
"You see, God's will for you is to
serve Him, in His way, as He chooses, now. It is only a want of humility
to think of extreme vocations, like being a nun or a nurse, while you try to
bypass your present obvious vocation, which is to restore your will to God's,
so that you may become what He wants you to be, and may be able to use
the faculties He has given to you for His service."
(From The Letters of Caryll
Houselander: Her Spiritual Legacy)
