"Life is so generous a giver but we, judging its
gifts by their covering, cast it away as ugly or
heavy
or hard. Remove the covering and you will find
beneath it a living splendor, woven of love, by
wisdom, with power.
Welcome it, grasp it, and you
touch the angel's hand that brings it to you.
Everything we call a trial or a sorrow or a duty,
believe me that angel's hand is there, and the wonder
of an overshadowing presence.
Life is so full of
meaning and purpose, so full of beauty beneath its
covering, that you will find earth but cloaks your
heaven.
Courage then to claim it, that is
all."
