Day 285: Saint Jane Frances de Chantal

Today we celebrate Saint Jane Frances de Chantal, a devoted wife, loving mother, faithful widow, and co-founder of the Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary. After losing her husband in a tragic accident, she chose forgiveness over bitterness and allowed God to transform her grief into a life of extraordinary holiness. Her story reminds us that no suffering is beyond God's power to redeem.Scripture"Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you."1 Peter 5:7Thought to Remember"Do not look forward to what may happen tomorrow.
