St. Martin de Porres says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“When God sends a cross to fill the present moment, it is a gift of love in disguise. If the cross is returned to God with love, He accepts it graciously with Love. So you see, there are some gifts which are best when returned to the sender. [He smiles.] ”

“In every present moment there is some form of the cross and also the grace to receive it with love, and to return it to God with love. If you live this way, you will be spiritually strong.”
