Dear All
HOW DO YOU SEE THE CRUCIFIX IN YOUR MARRIAGE?
AND
HOW DOES YOUR ANSWER TO THE QUESTION MAKE YOU FEEL?
E.G. HAPPY? GLAD? ETC
It was a very fruitful sharing. Most couples were going through problems arising from the economic situation. They were comforted to know that Christ is ever present in their lives, bringing to them peoples with worse situation or problems than them...that the cross Christ has given them is the right size.
Some shared that the sacrament of marriage extends to beyond just the couple and their children, but also to the spouses extended family members like their parents and even siblings.
Besides looking only on the "negativity" of the crucified Christ, couples also enjoy the joy of unconditional love found in married life, between husband and wife, and between parents and their children. This is a reflection of God's love for us living among us today.
That's our summary of Sat's session. Feel free to add in more.
Love Theresa & Albert

From the catechism para 1615: It is by following Christ, renouncing themselves, and taking up their crosses that spouses will be able to "receive" the original meaning of marriage and live it with the help of Christ. This grace of Christian marriage is a fruit of Christ's cross, the source of all Christian life.
