(The good news is St. Robert Bellarmine shows you easy ways to do it.)
Perhaps the single, most difficult thing in life is figuring out how to joyfully carry the cross after Jesus.
But we have to do it, because Jesus tells us...
"And he that takes not up his cross, and follows Me, is not worthy of Me" (Mt. 10:38).
And...
"And whosoever does not carry his cross and come after Me, cannot be My disciple" (Lk. 14:27).
So, it's crucial to get this handled.
Fortunately, it's easier than you think.
Here's why.
When Pope Clement VIII named St. Robert Bellarmine a Cardinal, he said:
"The Church of God has not his equal in learning."
And that's why you should read "The Marian Writings of St. Robert Bellarmine".
You see, Blessed Pope Pius IX stated:
"God has committed to Mary the treasury of all good things, in order that everyone may know that through her are obtained every hope, every grace, and all salvation. For this is His will, that we obtain everything through Mary."
That's why Pope St. Pius X emphasized in the Encyclical Ad diem illum:
"Hence nobody ever knew Christ so profoundly as she did, and nobody can ever be more competent as a guide and teacher of the knowledge of Christ.
"Hence it follows, as We have already pointed out, that the Virgin is more powerful than all others as a means for uniting mankind with Christ."
In other words, no one's better qualified than Mary to teach you how to joyfully carry the cross after her Son.
This collection of St. Robert's Marian writings will rapidly draw you closer to Mary. It's your best one-two punch when it comes to advancing quickly in both Marian doctrine and devotion.
And, for the first time in English, you'll see previously untranslated biographical material about St. Robert, showing you how he lived his own devotion to Mary.
In fact, he shows you precisely how to "learn from the example of Mary."
Mary is all about helping you carry the cross after her Son with great joy. That's why the Church calls her the "Cause of our joy".
The fact is, the cross will still be a part of your life, though, because...
"For whom the Lord loves, He chastises; and He scourges every son whom He receives" (Heb. 12:6-10).
In other words, the only road to heaven is the road of the cross.
St. Paul realized this. He said that he was "caught up to the third heaven...and heard secret words, which it is not granted man to utter" (2 Cor. 12:2, 4).
And yet, he esteemed it a greater glory to wear a prisoner's chains for Jesus than to be raised to the third heaven. That's why he declared...
"For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified" (1 Cor. 2:2).
And...
"But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ" (Gal. 6:14).
