Christ was obedient even unto death and unto the death of the Cross. We should be ever grateful for the example that Our Lord has given us. The saints have always embraced this holy virtue. They constantly preached it and practiced it.
The virtue of obedience is so absolutely necessary for the salvation of our souls that Christ Himself came among us to teach it by word and example. His whole life was a life of obedience. He always obeyed His Heavenly Father. He was subject to Mary and Saint Joseph. He even bowed to King Herod, Pilate and his executioners.
Let us pray for the virtue of obedience.
In Christ,
Rev. Jeffery A. Fasching
