Why Me? Why This?



There are many times in our earthly journey when we might ask ourselves: “Why is God giving this particular cross to me?” or even “Has God forgotten me?” It is on those occasions when we should ponder and draw solace and strength from this eternal but forgotten and rarely shared Truth:



“It is one of the most firmly established and most consoling of the truths that have been revealed to us that [apart from sin] nothing happens to us in life, unless God wills it so.


                 (St. Claude de la Colombiere, S.J. from Trustful Surrender to Divine Providence)

Your Destiny...Your Duty

(Image Source - Wikimedia Commons ) This is the Will of God – your sanctification.  To be a child of Mary means to be a saint.  That is your destiny.  That is your duty.  That is the one work of your life and your life's only work…there is only one sorrow: not to be a saint.  God has willed that you be a saint; has made it the whole purpose of your life, and the only meaning of all your living.  Rev. M. Raymond, O.C.S.O.
