St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross & the Mystery of Suffering

Posted by

“Ino longer have a life of my own.” These words spoken by St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross pierced me deeply as I searched for quotes by her on suffering. This is the very thing I am wrestling with as I battle to submit to God’s will in my own life. I have accepted the crucifixion He has called me to—for the salvation and sanctification of the priests He has entrusted to me through prayer, sacrifice, and sufferings. I am weak and it is not easy to embrace everything He asks me to endure.
