A Carefree Life As a Sign of God’s Displeasure

“GOD has only one natural Son, who is innocence itself, and who is sinless, and yet He has not exempted Him from the law of suffering. A holy bishop, well aware of this truth, having met a man who told him that he had always been honored and financially secure, enjoying good health, surrounded by abundant possessions and a prosperous family: ‘Alas!’ exclaimed this prelate, ‘these are great signs of God’s wrath; let us flee quickly from a house where there seems to be no cross.’ No sooner had he left than God’s wrath fell upon this man and his family, who were crushed beneath the ruins of their home.”

— Fr. Henri-Marie Boudin, The Holy Ways of the Cross
