Suffering With Joy

Why I Love Jesus

April 8, 2011

Mary at The Beautiful Gate tagged me for this meme.  It’s a great opportunity to think again this Lent on what Jesus has done for us individually and corporately.

The rules for this meme are:
- Those tagged will share 5 things they “love” about Jesus
- Those tagged will tag 5 other bloggers
- Those tagged will provide a link in the comment section
here with their names so that others can read them

1. He has given me the grace of compunction and His Divine Mercy.

2. He made me love Him by His suffering.

3. He has given me friends who love Him, too.

4. He gave me His Mother at the foot of the cross.  I will never be without my Mama Mary.

5. He gives me all that I need spiritually and temporally even though I don’t even know what I need.

I tag:

Evan at Evan’s Cove

David at Wheat for Paradise

   I love your list, Barb. I forgot about Mother Mary! Yes, I agree that she is one of the greatest gifts God gave to us.

   I loved the way you worded number 5. To be honest, I have no clue what I really need either

   Thanks for taking part in the meme, Barb!
