can benefit me in any way. I prefer death in Christ Jesus to power over the furthest limits of the earth. He who died in place of us is the one object of my quest.”-St. Ignatius of Antioch
For Reflection:
Dear Lord,
St. Ignatius of Antioch was ready to be torn apart by a lion than to be separated from you. In light of his zeal, my own fervor is so weak. Give me courage and strength to proclaim your Truth no matter the cost. Heal me in those areas where I am weak. Fill me with your divine love. And renew me in faith and hope. I pray this in the name of Jesus my Lord. Amen.
St. Ignatius, pray for me.
