Only by constantly and lovingly reflecting on the love our suffering Lord has shown us can we learn to appreciate what He has done for us, and continues to do for us every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThese reflections reveal St. Paul of the Cross as a great master of the spiritual life, a sure guide in the way of perfection, and a heart burning with divine love. In short, a radiantly beautiful soul.\u003c\/span\u003e He is a gifted and experienced teacher who shows here that the cross is sweet only to those who love it, and that the deep joys of sacrifice are reserved for souls who do not quail before its austerities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis book is deeply encouraging, because St. Paul of the Cross links the Passion to the trials and tribulations Catholics face in their daily pursuit of virtue. Small changes over time can lead to a profoundly changed life, and this little volume is a great place to start. It would make a fine addition to your meditation library. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeven Dolors Chaplet\u003cbr\u003eWay of the Cross Before a Crucifix \u003cbr\u003ePrayer Before the Crucifix After Communion \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardback, 191pp.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"St. Paul of the Cross","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53633891795125,"sku":"8939","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/1691\/files\/8939-Flowers-of-the-Passion-cover.jpg?v=1793309335","url":"https:\/\/angeluspress.org\/products\/flowers-of-the-passion","provider":"Angelus Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
