Fr. Jack Loughran, OSFS, on Saintly Struggles

"Saint Paul reflected on struggles with these words: 'What I do, I do not understand. For I do not do what I want, but I do what I hate.' (Romans 7:15) . . .

"I find it consoling to know that saints struggled for years with moral mediocrity, laziness, and bad habits. They, like us, could cave into these things with a shrug saying: 'Tomorrow, I will make a new start!' We are in good company as we share their interior dilemma." 

In a recent commentary, Father Jack Loughran, OSFS, reflected on how this Easter season reminds us that things can always be new again. "It's never too late to start over. Every day begins as a blank page."
