Pope Affirms Practice of “Offering Up” our Daily Hardships
In his latest encyclical, “Spe Salvi” (“Saved in Hope”), Pope Benedict XVI affirms for today’s Christians the previously widespread practice of offering to God the minor daily hardships of our lives (paragraph 40). The Holy Father asks whether there may be in this practice something “essential and helpful” for everyday living. Those who offer their mundane hardships to God are convinced that they can “insert these little annoyances into Christ’s great ‘com-passion’” to help make up the “treasury of compassion so greatly needed by the human race.” The Holy Father concludes his remarks on this topic by suggesting that it would be “judicious to revive this practice ourselves.”
