***Thoughts on Martyrdom

        Today is the memorial of two saints and their companions, all martyrs. To be martyred for the glory of God is a great honor, but to be truly humble, we should leave martyrdom, like all else, entirely up to the Lord. If we specifically desire it, pride may be involved. The proper attitude is to accept martyrdom should the Lord send it our way.
