As much as we'd like to avoid suffering, we can't have Easter without Good Friday. This week, we're talking about how to grow closer to Jesus through our suffering, and I'm offering my perspective on this by reflecting on the suffering of childbirth and how the Lord prepared me for that experience. I still have a long way to go before suffering "well," but I hope this week's episode nonetheless encourages you as you abide with Jesus in the coming days.

Quote:
May the great mysteries of Gethsemane, the trial, and Calvary unfold in our hearts because of their intimate union with Jesus. And when our beloved has expired on the cross, may our hearts be his tomb, closed to everything else, until our eyes see his glorified wounds. (Venerable Mother Mary Magdalen of Jesus in the Eucharist)
