Learn from St Alphonsus Ligouri, Doctor of the Church, about the intense love of our Lord Jesus Christ that was shown to us in his passion.

As we are Christians we are aware of the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.  The Crucifixes that hang up in our rooms and in our Church’s remind us of the Death and tortures that our Lord and Savior suffered for on our behalf.

Yet, despite this knowledge we can lack tender sentiment or compassion.  The cross can be looked at as a challenge, a demand of strictness rather than as a remedy for illness.  While the Cross does challenge us, demand strictness, and for all Christians to “pick up their crosses daily and follow me” Luke 9:23.  It is a tragedy to look at the mystery of the Cross from only one angle, and to forget that our Lord Jesus Christ is “the good shepherd. The good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.” John 10:11
