For those of you who are questioning your motives (or those of others) meditate on this for awhile:
There's no mistake about it. You did what You had to do. Stick with it. Let the way people around You perceive it be a lesson in humility for You. Not everyone is as far along as You thought they were.
But you know where you stand, don't you?
Ponder this. Take it in completely and let it work through you:
Thou art to keep thyself in this wonderful silence humility brought you to and open wide your door so that God may communicate himself UNTO thee, unite with thee, and then form thee UNTO HIMSELF! The perfection of your soul consists not in speaking, nor in thinking so much on God, but in LOVING HIM SUFFICIENTLY. -Miguel de Molinos, 1640-1697
