In my experience, not enough Trad Catholics have meditated on these ideas.

Well stated above.

I treat my whole perspective on the faith and life as being reflected in the Rosary.

One third Joyful, One third Sorrowful and One Third Glorious.

Count all of your natural blessing and the aids the faith gives us in Life, art music, philosophy, poetry, humor, food, shelter, etc.

The crisis in the Church has to be dealt with in the Sorrowful section and it has to share space with all of the other sorrows of life in the fallen world, sin etc.

The Glorious part is getting a foretaste of and anticipating the final and eternal victories, the death of pain and suffering, This is where your prayer life and devotions should be leading you.

The Church and the faith is far more than the current crisis. If it ended today, would we get bored with a well-run Church because we are so used to battle?

Well said, Matthew. It is too easy to only focus on the evils of this crisis and walk around full of anger. We need to remember Christ is in control and be like children in the arms if Our Lady and go to her for consolation and comfort. This rejuvenates the soul and helps us go back out and fight.
