Costly Discipleship

Having internet problems, so I'm rushing.
Today's liturgy features the martyrdom of St. Stephen. I suggest you read Acts 7: 51-8: 1a. If you have time, you might even want to read his whole discourse which precedes this final scene.
Two things to note: We cannot escape some form of suffering, death to self, or even death itself, if we are to follow Jesus. What "little deaths" will we offer up today? And secondly, see how forgiving Stephen was! Can we find that depth of forgiveness? We have our challenges set before us for today and all days.
