So the important part of the sacrifice is doing it with a smile on your face and a song in your heart... this owrks if you are say praying for someone or perhaps doing an extra chore. But how do you eat (gaaaaag) oatmeal without grimacing?
I'm a career Youth Ministry Coordinator, now serving as a Pastoral Ministry Managers in the largest Collaborative in the Boston area...married to the Best YM in the Archdiocese. On my office bulletin board, an illustration from St. Joseph's Baltimore Catechism shows two boys wearing baseball mitts looking out a window. One says "Too bad it's raining." The other replies, "When we accept things like this from God without complaining, it helps to clean the selfishness out of our souls."
That just cracks me up.
