You should definitely know that spiritual joys are always followed by a spiritual Calvary.

Our quest for spiritual advancement cannot lead our soul only to the meadows of joy and consolation, and leave it there. Sooner or later it is inevitably led on to the way of the cross. Carrying our spiritual cross we learn patience and docility. You should definitely know that spiritual joys are always followed by a spiritual Calvary.
