I cannot define what 'faithful' means. The real meaning begins at the point at which verbal explanation is inadequate and ceases to be. Yet we know in our inner heart what it is trying to say. All the good we may recognize or desire is nothing in itself and leads nowhere unless it is strengthened in the thought of faithfulness. It is just like the hardening of metal. No one can explain how it happens. First it is weak and pliable, but then it becomes a hundred times as strong as it was before. Nor can we explain how every human virtue only achieves strength and fulfillment after it has been hardened on the anvil of faithfulness.
