'Let the simplicity of Christ instruct me, and the true humility of the wise loose me from the chains of doubt. For, as St. Paul says: 'When God showed us His wisdom, the world, with all its wisdom, could not find its way to God; and now God would use a foolish thing, our preaching, to save those who will believe in it.'

Makes me think of Bernadette and the children at Fatima.

I love St. Bernadette!
