Excerpt from The Porch of Paradise

Uffering has been long acknowledged as an indispensable factor in the building up of souls the place Of love and happiness is less secure. It is at least possible that there are stunted souls who cannot converse fully with the Divine Father till they have had ampler draughts from the breasts of natural joy. Aquinas speaks Of two kinds of joy joy in God and joy in His works. The writer has not ven tured to do more than trouble the curtain that hides the former, and the joys Of the Porch Of Paradise are chiefly Of the latter, or joys such as we haltingly pursue upon this present earth.
