Salesian counsel
God's will
"Do not think that God is further away from you when you are in the midst of the busyness to which your vocation calls you then he would be if you were enjoying a tranquil life. No, it is not tranquility which brings him close to our hearts; it is rather the fidelity of our love. It is not the feeling we have of his sweetness, but the consent we give to his holy will."

Such great insight for our busy, multi-tasked days!
The "then" should be a "than."
But still a very beautiful quote.
