The Art of Sacrifice

Watch the full video episode at https://youtu.be/i_yYtqgwdb4   To sacrifice is to make holy. Most of us are given enough suffering in this world that if we were to offer it fully and freely to the Lord, that would be enough. We need only to accept—well—the penances that life gives us.   Any additional sacrifices—ones that we choose—should be chosen carefully; intentionally, and after checking in with someone else, and always looking toward freedom.   We sacrifice to seek always greater freedom to be totally given again to the Lord.   Get your copy of Habits for Holiness (by Fr Mark-Mary Ames, CFR!) at https://ascensionpress.com/habits   The Poco a Poco podcast happens because of generous donors like you.
