This week we were thrilled to have a special guest, our dear friend, Brother Pius Marie, CFR. He was such a joy to talk with and we were blown away by his wisdom on the topic of: Our identity in Christ. He has such a profound insight on our Identity in Christ being rooted in the cross and suffering.
With this heavy topic he helps us draw closer to Christ through our suffering instead of running from it.
We often dismiss our cross when we compare ourselves to others, or can be overcome by it crippling us from the joys and peace God has for us, or we can feel like a victim from our suffering. But Brother Pius reminds us that our cross is our own. It is in the present moment in our suffering that Christ meets us and wants to love us. Even if we try to hide from him in the garden, He is calling out to us and He wants us to be real and authentic with Him through our cross.
"I have been crucified with Christ; yet I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me; insofar as I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God who has loved me and given Himself up for me."
-Galatians 2: 19-20
