Christ within him
How could I have known, when I met him 23 years ago, that he would become the man he is today?
The graces from daily Mass, frequent confession and adoration hours and much spiritual reading are truly visible. We feel inspired by his selflessness and acts of mortification. Rarely, does he lose his temper and he always thinks the best of everyone, removing himself from gossip. (Sometimes this can be quite shaming as it highlights where I fail.) He's really trying to be a saint, his mind on heaven....eternity. He continues to ask himself, "how radical is radical enough...for Christ?"
May God continue to bless him with good health so that he can continue to inspire, lead and transform us all by letting us see Christ in him.
Happy birthday beloved husband!
