St. Francis of Paola, writing in the late 1400s speaks clearly about the sufferings of Jesus and their application to our lives, especially in today's COVID-19 world: "Fix your minds on the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Inflamed with love for us, he came down from heaven to redeems us. For our sake he endured every torment of body and soul and shrank from no bodily pain. He himself gave us an example of perfect patience and love. We, then, are to be patient in adversity." (Magnificat, April, p. 37). May we have the grace to take the advice of St. Francis.
