The spiritual life needs opposition to bring out its best development. It flourishes most luxuriantly in adverse circumstances. The very temptations that make our life one unceasing warfare train us to become true soldiers of Christ. The hardness of our experiences, which seem to us to be more than we can possibly endure, make the very school of life for us in which we learn our best lessons and grow into whatever beauty and Christ likeness of character we attain.From the book: "Today, Lord I Will."

Lovely.
Peace be with you<><
It seems so true that we shine through adversity. I did really enjoy the Getty. The outer gardens and pools and fountains were my favorite for sure. We have more at our doorstep to explore and enjoy and see God's beauty in. I'm on a quest to see more :)
Blessings on you and yours....
