Do not fear. Jesus is more powerful than all Hell. At the invocation of His Name every knee in heaven, on earth and in hell must bend before Jesus. This is the consolation of the good and terror of the evil ones.
Stop entertaining those vain fears. Remember it is not feeling which constitutes guilt but the consent to such feelings. Only the free will is capable of good or evil. But when the will sighs under the trial of the tempter and does not will what is presented to it, there is not only no fault but there is virtue.
Despise your temptations and do not dwell on them. Imagine you have Jesus Christ crucified in your arms and on your breast and, kissing his side, say: “Behold my hope, behold the living source of my happiness. I will hold you close, oh my Jesus, and I will not leave you until you have put me in a place of safety”.
Walk amid wind and waves, but with Jesus. If fear strongly grips you, exclaim with Saint Peter: “Oh Lord, save me!” He will extend his hand to you. Seize it firmly and walk cheerfully. Let the world turn topsy-turvy, everything be in darkness and Mount Sinai all aflame, covered with lightning, thunder: God is with you. But if God lives in the darkness, and Mount Sinai all aflame, covered with lightning, thunder, and noise, will we not be safe near him?
