My father ALWAYS advised us to “offer it up to Christ”.....his voice rings in my ears, but I forget to do it....or else I really don’t WANT to.......BUT it DOES help, plus it takes your mind off YOU and YOUR pains, and concentrates them to your friends and relatives.

Many saints endured a lot, including the stigmata and offered it to Christ for others.

We are at a Carmelite parish here in Los Angeles. At a retreat, one of the priests told me to ‘offer it up.’ I am a convert, didn’t know this; he didn’t seem to think it was old-fashioned or no longer valid. The Carmelites are very orthodox, love the Lord. (Now ... I’ll read the article. Thanks for posting).
