So the greater a challenge God gives us, the more we persevere in carrying out His Will, this will cause our Faith to grow inside of us. That takes a lot of determination.......St Augustine said that it would be impossible not to have enemies in this life. Forgiveness and not Scandalizing (Calumny) is something that distinguishes more righteous persons. This can be a Cross. Blessings!

I am reminded of Gilbert Keith Chesterton's wisdom. It is not that Christianity is found wanting, but Christianity is found HARD and so it is NOT tried! Thanks and Blessings!
