22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
Life gives us many crosses and we have 2 choices: avoid them or embrace them. Jesus embraced His cross and He asks us, His followers, to do the same. When we try to avoid our crosses they begin to slow us down and sap the life out of us. But when we invite Jesus in and embrace our crosses, He gives us the strength to live a strong and rich life even in the midst of our struggles and difficulties. "Jesus, I give you my crosses today, come and give me Your strength to carry them with my head held high and to live a rich life. Amen."
