Spiritual Arms: Five Minutes for the Battle

Kick off your day with 5 minutes of faith!

Revised Standard Version (RSV) translation

New Testament:

• Luke 9:23-27

• Colossians 1:24

Old Testament:

• Psalm 62:12

• Wisdom 3:6

• Sirach 2:5

Catechism of the Catholic Church:

• Paragraph 618

• Paragraph 1435

Takeaways:

• St. Paul the Apostle speaks about offering his sufferings for the good of others and for the Church.

• The Church teaches that Jesus’ suffering was fully sufficient to save us, but God allows believers to unite their own sufferings with His for the benefit of others.

• When Christians accept their crosses and offer their struggles to God, they help carry one another’s burdens...because Jesus carries the cross with them.

• God gives us strength in our suffering when we share it with Him and with others; He can use that suffering to transform our hearts and the hearts of those with whom we share it.
