The crosses of this life can make us much better or much worse than we already are. That depends on how we receive them. If we are in the grace of God and united to Him by a constant life of prayer, the Holy Spirit transforms our pain into love, in order to become capable of configuring our lives to that of the crucified Christ. Only then does a genuine process of sanctification take place. This homily was given on May 18, 2023, Thursday of the 6th Week of Easter, during morning Mass at the Cristo Rei Parish, in Várzea Grande (MT).
