Perfect Resignation

Perfect Resignation

My God, I do not know what must come to me today.
But I am certain that nothing can happen to me that you have not foreseen, decreed, and ordained from all eternity. That is sufficient for me.  I adore your impenetrable and eternal designs, to which I submit with all my heart.   I desire, I accept them all, and I unite my sacrifice to that of Jesus Christ, my divine Savior.   I ask in his name and through his infinite merits, patience in my trials, and perfect and entire submission to all that comes to me by your good pleasure.
Amen

-St. Joseph Pignatelli, SJ
