The Place Where Your Glory Dwells: Fenelon III


The Beauty of the Cross

"The Kingdom of God began at Calvary. The Cross was a necessity. When we pick up the cross of Jesus and bear it in love to Him, His Kingdom has also begun in us. We must be satisfied to carry that cross as long as it is His will. You have need of the Cross as well as I. The faithful Giver of every good gift distributes them to each of us with His own hand. Blessed be His name! Every cross which He gives is purely for our profit."

Fenelon, Letter 3.
