What does it matter if I suffer injustice? Would I not have deserved even worse punishment from God, if he had not dealt with me according to his mercy? Is not justice done to me a thousand times even in injustice ? Must it not be wholesome and conducive to humility for me to learn to bear such petty evils silently and patiently? The patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit’ (Eccl. 7.8).
