To follow Jesus is to take up our cross each day.  Pain, sadness, fear and suffering were all a part of Christ's life and essential to his redemptive love for us.  To follow Jesus in love is therefore also to share in his suffering.  Our faith helps us to find meaning and solace in our most difficult trials.

The Blessings Hidden in Suffering

"Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while."  These words of Jesus Christ are an invitation to personal and intimate prayer.  The meditations offered in this podcast are intended to help the listener enter into his own prayerful relationship with God.  By reflecting on scenes from the Gospel, on other passages from Scripture, and on the insights of saints and spiritual writers, we can strengthen our faith in Jesus and our love for God.  In the Gospel of John, Jesus says, "I have called you my friends."  By regular meditation and dialogue with Our Lord in prayer, our life can be transformed into an ever deepening and loving friendship with God.
