"Our suffering is laden with grace that can be released if we embrace [our] cross and unite our suffering to the Passion of Christ."
Today's Reflection:
Easy to say, but not so easy to do. When pain racks our body or grief fills our heart, all seems dark and gray. What do we do in such moments? How do we get through such difficult times? What enables us to mine the treasure of grace that awaits us? How do we keep from being overwhelmed by the moment?
**Hint: it's the virtue of "perilous times"!
