Prayer Accompany Us Suffering

More From Pope Francis

Hardship, in forcing us to exercise greater patience and forbearance in daily life, actually makes us stronger and more robust. from the daily experience of hardship comes a greater capacity to accept difficulties without losing our sense of inner calm. of course, i do not advocate seeking out hardship as a way of life, but merely wish to suggest that, if you relate to it constructively, it can bring greater inner strength and fortitude.
Exercise Inner Strength Stronger
To choose a hardship for ourselves is our only defense against that hardship. this is what is meant by accepting suffering. those who, by their very nature, can suffer completely, utterly, have an advantage. that is how we can disarm the power of suffering, make it our own creation, our own choice; submit to it. a justification for suicide.

Jesus is the mediator of justice; mary obtains for us grace; for, as st. bernard, st. bonaventure, st. bernardine of siena, st. germanus, st. antoninus, and others say, it is the will of god to dispense through the hands of mary whatever graces he is pleased to bestow upon us. with god, the prayers of the saints are the prayers of his friends, but the prayers of mary are the prayers of his mother.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we had a world where everybody said, 'we don't know?' the fact is that you're surrounded -god and you don't see god, because you know about god. the final barrier to the vision of god is your god concept. you miss god because you think you know. the highest knowledge of god is to know god as unknowable. all revelations, however divine, are never any more than a finger pointing at the moon. as we say in the east, 'when the sage points to the moon, all the idiot sees is the finger'.

I've always hated religion. it's the most guilt-ridden, horrible thing. 'my god is better than yours, and i'm going to fight you and kill you because of your religion.' i think it's just a sick idea. you know how people are color-blind when it comes to other people - i mean, hopefully they are. well, i'm religious-blind.
