Sticks & Stones May Break My Bones...

“Many may not find giving up food and drink and a soft bed too difficult…St JohnChrysostomBut bearing an insult, a wrong, or hurtful words…this is something to be borne not by many but by few.” 

                                -St. John Chrysostom

 

For Reflection:

Am I being asked to bear an insult, a wrong or hurtful word right now? To what extent am I willing to bear it as a mortification for love of God?
