“Whoever wishes to be my follower must deny his very self, take up his cross each day, and follow in my steps.” (Luke 9:23)
Each day we have the ability to do a full examination of conscience, not to dwell on our mistakes and shortcomings, but to learn from them while obediently leaning on God’s grace all the more . We will all fall short of God’s glory because we are human and He is perfect; but when we unite our hearts with His and pick up our cross once more, His mercy and grace will strengthen us to continue on the journey. God Bless You!

A truly humble person never believes that he can be wronged in anything. Truly, we ought to be shamed to resent whatever is said or done against us; for it is the greatest shame in the world to see that our Creator bears so many insults from His creatures, and that we resent even a little word that is contradictory.

We should have frequent recourse to prayer, and persevere a long time in it. God wishes to be solicited. He is not weary of hearing us. The treasure of His graces is infinite. We can do nothing more pleasing to him than to beg incessantly that He bestow them upon us.
