What
is the secret of finding the Treasure? There isn't one. The Treasure is
everywhere. It is offered to us at every moment and wherever we find
ourselves. All creatures, friends or enemies, pour it out abundantly,
and it courses through every fiber of our body and soul until it reaches
the very core of our being. If we open our mouths they will be filled.
God's activity runs through the entire universe. It wells up around and
penetrates every created being. Wherever they are, it is there also. It
runs ahead of them, it stays with them, and it follows after them. All
they have to do is to allow its waves to sweep them forward, fulfill the
simple duties of their religion and status in life, accept cheerfully
all the difficulties they meet, and surrender to the will of God in all
they have to do…. This is authentic spirituality, and it is valid for
all times and for everyone. We could not choose to become good in a
better, more miraculous, and yet easier way than by the simple use of
the means offered us by God; the whole-hearted acceptance of everything
that comes to us at every moment of our lives.
-Jean Pierre de Causade, French Priest
