You may not think of this right now but it is through the examples of the saints we will understand the gift of the cross, God has given each one of us. Please never look at your cross as a curse but a blessing, each day if you seek Our Lord in the journey, you will find the blessings your cross has in your life. God our loving Father has a gentle plan, HE is strengthening us each day in our journey towards Heaven.
REMEMBER HE loves YOU!
The post below has a link (please click the link “LECTURE”) that I pray you will take time to listen to. St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, aka, Edith Stein, has so blessed me to understand the blessings of the cross, she is teaching me and I pray that she teaches you that your cross is truly a blessing. The ways we accept this blessing is taking our time for prayer and adoration with Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament and offering all to Jesus.
God bless you,
Therese, ocds
