I didn’t know that the pain could be offered up to God for the good of those who are most in need of His mercy and souls in purgatory. I heard of this more than a year ago and I thank you for this. It does wonders and immediately soothes, I guess the focus shifts from self to other more needy souls is of great help.<br /><br /><br />Also in Matt 11:28-30, Jesus says that His yoke is easy and burden light. If at all times, we remember to just lean on Him, love and trust Him, focus on conforming to God’s will for us, the pain too becomes bearable. Even amidst our pain, we will be able to rejoice knowing how much we are loved by God.<br />Tricia Tanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17302992284391983023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7853204965986587589.post-79126579024771923232018-12-18T09:50:11.914+08:002018-12-18T09:50:11.914+08:00What an inspiring message.
