An Example of Hope for Those Who Suffer - Saint Jane Frances de Chantal
Daily Gospel Reflection on Veritas Catholic Network
Today we read from Matthew 17:22-27, it’s the feast of St. Jane Frances De Chantal. St. Jane is a fascinating figure. She was married to a nobleman and they had six children together. Unfortunately, her husband was killed 7 years into their marriage, which lead St. Jane into a deep depression. It was after her husbands death that she encountered St. Francis De Sales. He encouraged to her to continue to live a life of holiness. Her story is so fascinating because her life was truly one that had difficulties. Through the intercession of St. Jane, may we come to understand our call to live in companionship with Jesus through every consolation and every difficulty.
