God
Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you;
All things are passing;
God never changes;
Patience gains all things;
Whoever possesses God,
Lacks nothing.
God alone is enough.
-- Teresa of Avila

one with God
In fact if a soul is completely dominated by the will of God, God's will becomes the "principle of activity" which moves and directs the soul in all its actions. In this state the two wills, the will of God and the will of the soul, will now have become one, and this one will which has now become the will of the soul is in fact the divine will and the soul will abandon all other choice.
