Pick Up the Cross

"In the solidarity of purpose with the Divine, knowing that it is the will of God to accost a soul to bend over and pick up the Cross, we must raise our arms in submission and surrender to the grace of God, allowing its sanctification to pour down through the Calvary heart of our souls, soundlessly to the poor souls around us. Only then have we emptied ourselves to the purpose of our lives." Lynn O'Gorman Latchford from "Into the Night of God: Mother Teresa's Dark Night and Her Theology of Suffering"
