The Cross always leads to the Resurrection

"The Cross always leads to the Resurrection" These words of Father at mass recently struck me. All of us at any moment in our lives are carrying some form of crosses. Let us not focus on these crosses but on the Resurrection that will come.

Father shared with us that in life, we will always have our crosses to carry. God does not want us to suffer but allows us to experience pain, so we can come out stronger and better. Christ is the perfect example for us. God allowed His Son to die on the cross so we can be saved through the resurrection.

Let us embrace our cross and focus on the resurrection that comes through it. Remember that God will not allow us to bear a cross that we cannot handle. Let us take heart in that and look towards Christ for strength to endure the journey and emerge victorious with Him!
