Rest on the Cross of Christ - A Friday Meditation

SPCpointstoCrucifiedblog2016

"We ought to glory in nothing other than the cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ. You are blessed and don’t know it. You have Jesus Crucified with you. Now, perfect the work He has begun in you. What a noble work God is doing in your soul! Through your suffering, your imperfections are begin purified – even the imperfections you aren’t aware of. Your soul is becoming like a crystal in which the light of the divine Sun sparkles and you can rest in God totally transformed by love and charity. Now…rest yourself well on the cross of Christ, and sleep the sleep of faith and love in the Heart of the Crucified Jesus. Suffer, be silent, and in your spirit sing, 'I will boast of nothing else save the cross of our good Savior!'"
