According to the Apostle, God has both goodness and severity (cf. Rom. 11:22): His goodness addresses those who rest firmly in the Faith, the severity in those who distance themselves from it. And since the saint has been confirmed in the Faith, he says: `Thou hast dealt graciously with Thy servant.' St. Didymus the Blind, in The Lament of Eve by Johanna Manley
