Episode 56 -- Imitation of Christ III.18 -- We Must Follow Christ Patiently in Bearing the Sorrows of this Life

Lectio et Oratio - A podcast by Fr Michael Eades of the Toronto Oratory

We read the need we have to keep Christ's example before our eyes if we wish to be patient. The patience we long to possess is not some kind of abstract excellence. Our patience will look like Christ's. Our patience is in fact a share in his own patience. Patience emerges in the midst of sorrows. Christ is the man of sorrows. We must think about Him as sorrows happen to us.
