"What does it profit you to give God one thing if He asks of you another? Consider what it is God wants, and then do it." St. John of the Cross For Reflection: Is there something that I know God wants me to do that I am withholding from Him? (Consider: Is God asking you to forgive someone, to change a bad habit, to go to Confession more regularly, to take a stand on a particular matter?). What would St. John of the Cross advise? Ask St. John of the Cross for his intercession to follow through on God's will.
