Offer it up!

‘Affliction or consolation, health or sickness, is all one to a heart that loves. Since we wish only to please God, it should be enough for us that His Will is accomplished.’  St. Margaret Mary Alacoque

 When you wake up with a migraine headache, when you have a flat tire in the middle of a crazy day, when one of your shoelaces break or a button snaps off, when it rains and you forget your umbrella, when someone bumps into you with a full cup of hot coffee, when you pull a hamstring in a pick-up game of basketball, when someone treats you harshly, etc…these are the moments when we can gain many graces for those we love.  Try to offer up these moments for a loved one and Christ will send many graces their way!
