Spiritual Morsels of the Week: It is necessary for a disciple and follower of Christ to take up his cross. The cross means the various difficulties and sorrows associated with the Christian life. Crosses may be external or internal. To take up your cross means to tolerate everything without complaining, regardless of how unpleasant things might become. For example, if someone has insulted you or laughed at you or provoked you, bear it all without anger or resentment. Similarly, if you helped someone and he instead of showing gratitude, made up deceitful tales about you or if you wanted to do something good but were unable to accomplish it, bear it without despondency. Did some misfortune befall you? Did someone in your family become ill, or despite all your efforts and tireless labor did you repeatedly suffer failure? Has some other thing or person oppress you? Bear all in the name of Jesus Christ. Do not consider yourself punished unjustly, but accept everything as your cross. St. Innocent of Alaska If you want to do spiritual work on yourselves, do not examine what others are doing around you. Instead, have good thought about the good and the bad you see in others. Regardless of the reason that someone does something, you must put a good thought in your mind. A good thought contains love; it disarms the other person and makes him behave properly. Elder Paisios the Athonite The Holy Spirit dwells in the humble soul, bringing freedom, peace, love and blessedness. St Silouan the Athonite
