Series on Fire Within by Fr. Thomas Dubay, S.M. (Part 5 of 8)
In reality, suffering’s out there in many ways, and in most ways, it’s unavoidable. So, “Okay, what do we do with it?”. We’ll unpack this question in today’s episode. We are invited to unite our suffering with Jesus and offer it to Him. As we suffer generously and give that to the Lord, one of the fruits of it is that it creates the space and cultivates the soul for profound union with God Himself. In this fifth episode of our Fire Within series, we’ll discuss suffering, prayer, and growth in the spiritual life and discuss the close correlation between suffering and growth in prayer.

Hunger for God
Are you hungry for God? One of our foundational struggles is that we’re just not hungry for Him. Part of the path, if not the path, is that we will have to experience this hunger. A “stepping away” from the noise, distractions, and self-reliance, entering into a place of vulnerability and dependence on God and being able to live and pray from that place. Today, we will…
