"For this light momentary affliction is preparing us for an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison." (2 Corinthians 4:17)
Every affliction is an opportunity to grow in faith, hope and wisdom. Every affliction is a stepping stone towards heaven. If we join our every suffering to the Lord's for the benefit of souls on earth and in Purgatory we will grow in love and understanding. Let us join our afflictions to His and assist Him in blessing souls. When we offer our pain to the Lord our pain will be eased and His peace will be ours.
The glory that awaits us in heaven is beyond our wildest imaginings. It is greater than our most joy filled moment. May we be patient and know that what awaits us is worth every pain we will ever feel. Eternal joy, eternal peace, eternal love. That is what awaits us. May we know this and have joy.
Prayer:
Lord, I offer You every pain I will ever suffer for You to use to bless souls. Let me share in Your redemptive joy and in so doing be a blessing to others. Thank You for the gift of eternal life. May I attain it and be with You forever in heaven. Amen.
