“What are our real trials? By what name shall we call them? One cuts out a cross of pride, another of causeless discontent, another one of restless impatience or punish fretfulness. But is the whole any better than children’s play if looked at with the common eyes of reason, much more the pure eyes of faith.”
~ St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
When I compare my own crosses to those of others, Lord, mine appear so trivial against what I see others having to bear. Help me to see my crosses as opportunities for sharing in your passion and sufferings which paid the price of any redemption.
