Suffering, Divine Providence & Charity | St. Alphonsus, St. Bernard & The Holy Souls in Purgatory

https://papastronsay.blogspot.com/ https://papastronsay.com/benefactor/ Today’s meditation reflects on Tuesday in honor of Our Lord and Wednesday dedicated to St. Joseph, leading us into profound reflections from: The Glories of Mary — St. Alphonsus Liguori The saints on suffering and divine love The virtue of patience in crosses Providence and true charity Assistance to the Holy Souls in Purgatory We explore how Our Lady is our tender Advocate, never ceasing to intercede for even the most miserable sinner. We reflect on the powerful teaching that: If you thank God for good things, you pay a debt. If you thank Him for crosses, you make Him your debtor. The saints did not run from suffering — they embraced it. “Either to suffer or to die.” “To suffer and not to die.” “To suffer and be despised for Thy sake.” Why? Because suffering united to Christ crucified becomes medicine for the soul. We also examine: • Why God sends crosses • How patience brings true peace • Why prosperity can be spiritually dangerous • How Divine Will sweetens bitterness • Individualism vs collectivism in society • True Catholic charity — loving God first, then neighbor • A powerful debate: helping sinners or helping the Holy Souls? The Church teaches that charity toward the Holy Souls is one of the highest works of mercy — because they can no longer help themselves. May this meditation strengthen you to: Accept your crosses Live in resignation to God’s will Practice supernatural charity Aid the suffering souls Grow in holy love If this meditation helps you, consider offering a prayer today for: 🙏 The Holy Souls in Purgatory 🙏 The conversion of sinners 🙏 Patience in your own trials
