Jesus Changes the Virtue of Patience
Fr. Cajetan Cuddy, O.P. reflects on James 5 and the meaning of Christian patience. St. James calls us to wait for the Lord, but Christian waiting is never passive. Christ already comes to us in the sacraments and in faith, shaping our minds, loves, and daily actions.We wait for Jesus by waiting with Jesus. The same Lord who will appear in glory is the Lord who is present now, and those who live in union with Him today will not be surprised when He comes. Every moment gains eternal meaning when lived in His presence.
