Sanctus Ioannes Crucis

Happy memorial of Saint John of the Cross. From today's Office of Readings, St. John said:

"Though holy doctors have uncovered many mysteries and wonders, and devout souls have understood them in this earthly condition of ours, yet the greater part still remains to be unfolded by them, and even to be understood by them. We must then dig deeply in Christ. He is like a rich mine with many pockets containing treasures: however deep we dig we will never find their end or their limit. Indeed, in every pocket new seams of fresh riches are discovered on all sides."

Enjoy some good suffering today and remember that the path to salvation lay in taking up your crosses and following Christ to Calvary.
