Suffering Transforms Us

Suffering is to be found in every phase of life Will be evident in the life of anyone who follows Father Christ It is not a punishment or penalty But an ordinary part of earthly existence Patient suffering can be a shock absorber That helps us over the potholes Rough places of life without becoming all shaken up When we accept suffering without constantly complaining We weaken their negative impact Wheather physical, Mental Emotional huts The better we endure the cross The more Father Christlike we become Accepting sufferings means Not running towards it but through it Father Christ speaks of a mother Forgetting her labor pains once child is born Some saintly people have welcomed suffering As a way of imitating Father Christ Proving their love for Him Savior has said we will save our souls Through patient endurance. Thanks Father Christ for Your suffering to save us May 11, 2014
