Thoughts on the Patient Endurance of Sorrows and Sufferings

A beautiful traditional Catholic book of meditations on the virtue of patience and the Christian endurance of sorrows, trials, and sufferings.

Patience gathers reflections, poems, prayers, stories, counsels, and maxims to help the soul understand the meaning and value of patient suffering. Originally printed by Benziger Brothers in 1937, this classic Fr. Lasance volume offers wisdom and encouragement for bearing crosses with a peaceful and well-ordered spirit.

Inspired by the Scripture, “The patient man is better than the valiant: and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh cities,” this book is especially useful for meditation, spiritual reading, and growth in self-mastery and resignation to God’s will.
