Codzienność krok po kroku - o. Mariusz Wójtowicz OCD (Smak Karmelu | Karmelitańskie historie #9)

What should we do when discouragement strikes? What obstacles did St. Elizabeth of the Holy Trinity face and how did she cope with them? How can we avoid being discouraged by the example of the "young saints"? Why does "pulling ourselves together" sometimes not work? And how can we act when we feel helpless? Fr. Mariusz Wójtowicz, a Discalced Carmelite, retreat leader, and spiritual director, and author of the website "Mysticism of Everyday Life," shares his remedies for discouragement. — Visit our profile on Patronite.pl: https://www.patronite.pl/smakkarmelu Spotify | https://open.spotify.com/show/313RFp4...
