El hombre de Villa Tevere. Chapter 9

This is a much shorter chapter than the previous ones as if wanting to re-affirm that St. Josemaria's life though having it, was not made of it.

The chapter talks about the extraordinary graces, the miracles which Our Lord God worked on St. Josemaria or for him.
"Un hombre que se fia de Dios: eso es un santo" [A man who trusts God, that's a saint]. St. Josemaria, as all other saints, based his life on God, asked him for everything and expected everything from him. He knew clearly that he, by himself could do nothing.

In 1958, when in London, he almost felt into sadness realizing that he could do nothing to bring to God such society which was so indiffirent to God's things. But then he heard "tú no puedes nada, pero Yo lo puedo todo" [you can do nothing, but I can do everything], and of course, then he knew that there would be success in London and everywhere else.

There were many miracolous events on his life: words he heard from God clearly, miracolous cure from diabetes in 1954, among others, but he was always reluctant to talk about this, as he wanted to transmit to people that holiness is in the ordinary, everyday things, not the miracles which rarely happen.
