Often, we complain about the challenges we face in our lives, our sufferings, not knowing that our sufferings could serve as opportunities for us; opportunity to talk to God, opportunity to offer our sufferings to Him for the good of others, opportunity to serve our purgatory here on earth. Think about it, even if we complain and rebel because of ours sufferings, nothing good will come out from it. Why don’t we just ask God for the grace to suffer well, so that our sufferings would become useful? To make us better persons and to help others as well by offering our sufferings to God for their sake.
