How did you endure your disappointing marriage?
The deaths of your sons?
And when all was taken away, you embraced even greater poverty in the convent (having endured the humiliation of an initial rejection).
How did you accept the Son you knew wasn't yours? The One you didn't deserve?
Whose end you saw in all its blood and horror, knowing you'd offer no comfort to Him or His mother - the Loves of your life.
Yet, you worked dutifully. Joyously.
In silence.
St.s Rita and Joseph, pray for my faith, my fortitude, my piety. Pray for all of us.
I'm a husband, father of two adult daughters, Jesuit educator, stage actor and writer living in upstate NY. I like to write about how grace breaks into our everyday lives, and the power of prayer.
