 23  Unic,  11|        I know how grievous such trials are and I think they need

 29  Unic,  13|         who are free from these trials -- who are pampered, as
 30  Unic,  14|      all. The soul suffers many trials, for the Lord wants the

 36  Unic,  20|         life they purchase only trials and unrest. What disquiet!
 37  Unic,  22|     bear to think of such great trials as those which He suffered.
 38  Unic,  22|        Who will not leave us in trials and tribulations, as earthly
 39  Unic,  22|       suffering persecutions or trials, when we cannot get as much

 43  Unic,  22|        and we must endure these trials, and be calm amidst aridities,
 44  Unic,  23|    looked, then, I was beset by trials. I was like a person who
 45  Unic,  25|       in the extremity of their trials they may learn the greater

 48  Unic,  28|        by this path. Very great trials befell him on my account,
 49  Unic,  28|      deal of trouble with these trials of mine, for during the
 50  Unic,  28|         it was one of the worst trials that I have ever known in
 51  Unic,  29|       Many are the affronts and trials that I have suffered through
 52  Unic,  29|        tell Him about all these trials and I always came away from
 53  Unic,  30|       her great relief from her trials by bringing her a visit
 54  Unic,  30|        temptations and interior trials which she sometimes suffered.~
 55  Unic,  30|         from a great part of my trials, and, for the time being,
 56  Unic,  30|         would be many more such trials awaiting me. I should therefore
 57  Unic,  30|      left me with the spiritual trials which I shall now describe.
 58  Unic,  30|            the sorest spiritual trials, together with bodily pains
 59  Unic,  30|        upon me together that my trials were so great and caused
 60  Unic,  30|      these bodily and spiritual trials which I was suffering, the
 61  Unic,  30|     find the Lord within it. So trials like these, unbearable as
 62  Unic,  32|      when I have been suffering trials or pains and when everything
 63  Unic,  32|        serious disturbances and trials which the work would cost
 64  Unic,  33|        how she suffered various trials and how in all of them she
 65  Unic,  33|        the Lord knows what sore trials and afflictions it had cost
 66  Unic,  33|       should not be immune from trials coming from the source which
 67  Unic,  33|     failed me, and in all these trials which I have enumerated
 68  Unic,  33|        blessing it is to suffer trials and persecutions for His
 69  Unic,  33|  incapable of ceasing to desire trials. The other people thought
 70  Unic,  33|       it furnished cost me many trials, some of which I had to
 71  Unic,  34|       rashly: to go might bring trials upon me, but God would be
 72  Unic,  34|   greater are the cares and the trials that it brings with it.
 73  Unic,  34|      though I was not free from trials, or from certain jealousies
 74  Unic,  34|        a life of many spiritual trials. He urged me to tell him
 75  Unic,  34|         me to tell him what the trials were. I said that they were
 76  Unic,  34|         as the Lord knew of the trials I had to endure, His Majesty,
 77  Unic,  34|      have helped me in numerous trials and done me a great deal
 78  Unic,  36|        the habit, and the great trials and temptations which she
 79  Unic,  36|       convent. So many were the trials I had to suffer that I began
 80  Unic,  36|          that, if I was to have trials, this was the way to win
 81  Unic,  36|      myself. I had been wanting trials, and here were some good
 82  Unic,  36|        and suffering such great trials. I believe what they had
 83  Unic,  36|         could. He suffered many trials and great persecution over
 84  Unic,  36|       description of the severe trials which we had to suffer.~
 85  Unic,  36|                         All the trials that we have suffered will,
 86  Unic,  36|     opposition or escape severe trials. I know that all the observances
 87  Unic,  36|      when you remember how many trials the Lord has sent us and
 88  Unic,  36|        and gladness and the few trials which we have had during
 89  Unic,  37|        prefer to endure all the trials in the world until the world
 90  Unic,  37|       more glory, or to have no trials and attain to one degree
 91  Unic,  37|      most gladly accept all the trials in exchange for a little
 92  Unic,  37|        me grace to endure great trials, even were it at the greatest
 93  Unic,  37|     this is not like the severe trials which I have said I sometimes
 94  Unic,  38|      help to him in bearing the trials of the journey if he has
 95  Unic,  39|        I call to mind the great trials which have to be borne in
 96  Unic,  39|       way and thinking over the trials which it had cost me, and
 97  Unic,  39|        this time, on top of the trials I have already mentioned,
 98  Unic,  39|         save God. In these sore trials the Lord always sent me
 99  Unic,  39|        for suffering the sorest trials. When they come, I almost
100  Unic,  40|         nothing to me to desire trials. So there seems to me now
101  Unic,  40|        as a result of the great trials I am suffering. When the
