The way to a new life is through the death of the old self

Our cross is truly the greatest gift from God; it is meant to strip us completely of the old self, of the slightest clinging to anything, and to clothe us in thoughts of essential things – death, heaven, hell, and the abandoned, humiliated and crucified Jesus.

Whenever God wants to give new life – resurrection, the way to new life is through the death of the old self. There is no other way than to deny yourself, take up your cross and follow Jesus, and then die spiritually to yourself, to sin, and to the world! May God, through various little things, lead us into death with Mary and through Mary.
