Words to Live By This Lent

"Jesus, whose divine love alone can redeem all humanity, wants us to share his Cross so that we can complete what is still lacking in his suffering (cf. Col 1:24). Whenever we show kindness to teh suffering, the persecuted, and defenseless, and share in their sufferings, we help to carry that same Cross of Jesus. In this way we obtain salvation and help contribute to the salvation of the world."

(Pope Benedict XVI in Let God's Light Shine Forth edited by Robert Moyhihan, Page 99)
