I remember the reading I looked at this morning from St. Isaac of Stella for its clear parallelism regarding how so many things should be applied to the Church in a general sense, applied to Mary in a unique sense, and applied to each Christian in an individual sense.
Of course, I should have been looking at the reading from St. John of the Cross, whose feast day it is. Today's reflection deals with the essential role that suffering plays in helping us to enter into the thicket of wisdom and riches.
Good stuff! Of the two, I'm afraid I'm finding more encouragement in San Juan de la Cruz today.
