Remember Christ Crucified
I don’t think the great Carmelite saint, John of the Cross, was urging us to shut up about our sorrows in this quote; rather, I believe he was reminding us that in the midst of our anguish there is more comfort from the silent Suffering Servant who feels our pain and embraces us within His own than in all the words of frustration, complaint, or explanation we might try to express.

How beautiful…...I think he means also that whatever terrible comes our way ,when we think of Him suffering….our pain is nothing compared to that…
Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for these words, Bonnie! Indeed, He is our comfort beyond words, and our companion both in the “good times” as well as the ones that hurt so much. And He so wants us to think of Him, love Him, and walk minute by minute with Him. I love Him so much! – Pat
