Much concerned:
When I hurt in body or spirit for some reason that is when I find my self somehow relating to Christ. It brings to mind His sufferings, and I’m in awe.
When I love and do not feel the love returned, I think if how many times I have not returned love to Jesus who loves me always…and I’m in awe.
When I am worried or stressed out, I imagine what Jesus must have felt in the Garden that night…and I’m in awe.
Many churches have a fellowship that is attractive, and even what seems like a lively faith, but I love the Catholic Church for the depth of beauty in the truths she protects. The merit of my suffering, the sacraments, the explanations of real love, the contemplations of the many saints we honor. I am astounded by how the Church, this great gift of Jesus to us, draws me ever closer to Him.
I know many people think of a realtionship with Jesus as being one of happy thoughts and peace and joy. I don’t mean to sound uncheerful or anything, but I find my relationship with Christ deepening most often in my sufferings.Write and share with me how you are working at getting close to Jesus.
