Take 2 with Jerry & Debbie

How Well Do You Suffer?

Leave a comment

Archbishop Fulton Sheen commented that so much suffering “goes to waste.” To the world – and also to too many Christians – that is a very odd phrase. But suffering is a part of life. Everyone’s life. Without exception. It’s going to come. But it’s what we do with our suffering that matters. We can choose to “waste” it by resisting it, fleeing from it, getting angry at God, and so forth. Or we can be a conduit of incredible graces to the world, especially to those who are suffering. There’s nothing wrong with seeking to eliminate suffering whenever possible. But when it seems that it must be a part of our lives, how well do we handle it? That’s what we want your takes on with Jerry and Debbie on Monday at Noon ET (with a replay of the show at Midnight ET).
