I give thanks to my God tirelessly
who kept me faithful in the day of trial, so that today I offer sacrifice to
him confidently, the living sacrifice of my life to Christ, my Lord, who
preserved me in all my troubles. I can say therefore: Who am I, Lord, and what
is my calling that you should cooperate with me with such divine power? Today
among heathen peoples, I praise and proclaim your name in all places, not only
when things go well but also in times of stress. Whether I receive good or ill,
I return thanks equally to God, who taught me always to trust him unreservedly.
From St. Patrick's Confession, emphasis mine.
