You may be wrong when you say that being religious is difficult. The truth is there is only one thing required of you: total faithfulness to God. This devotion can become part of your life in active and passive ways. You are actively loyal to God when you keep his commandments. Passive loyalty is a loving acceptance of whatever God sends you every moment of every day. God does not require of us more than we can deliver. Could anything be fairer or more sensible? He will not push you beyond your strength and capacity.
— Jean-Pierre de Caussade (1675-1751)
