Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man, what things God has prepared for them that love him.

For Greater Glory

We just watched "For Greater Glory" about the persecution of Catholics in Mexico in the 1920's.

Throughout the film, several holy deaths are portrayed. 

To me, the portrayal of young Jose was very inspiring.  Jose was a young boy who, having witnessed the execution of his priest, decided to join the Cristeros.  He was later captured by the government and tortured.  At his death, he again repeated, "Viva Cristo Rey!" 







I hope my faith is that strong.
