“"Rejoice," therefore, "in the Lord, O you righteous," not when the interests of your home are flourishing, not when you are in good health of body, not when your fields are filled with all sorts of fruits, but when you have the Lord—such immeasurable Beauty, Goodness, Wisdom. Let the joy that is in him suffice for you…”
Basil of Caesarea, 4th c. — HOMILIES ON THE PSALMS 15:1 (PS 33)
