I had a few days ago, an insight
which consoled me very much.
It was during my thanksgiving, when I make
a few reflections upon the goodness of God, and
how should one not think of this at such a time, of that
infinite goodness, uncreated goodness, the source of all goodness. ...
I saw written as in letters of gold this word "Goodness"
which I repeated for a long time with indescribable sweetness. I
beheld it, I say, written upon all creatures, animate and inanimate,
rational or not, all bore this name goodness. ...
I understood then that all these creatures have of goodness and
all the services and assistance that we receive from each of them
is a benefit which we owe to the goodness of God
who has communicated to them something of his infinite goodness
so that we may meet it in everything and everywhere.
