About this listen

Why is there so much suffering in the world? How should we deal with suffering in our own lives? The Saving Power of Suffering teaches the answers to these questions and more, showing Catholics how to transform trials into triumph. Suffering is not our enemy but a mechanism by which God is able to help us find, accept, and even use our trials for personal and spiritual growth. In this book, Father Jacob Powell discusses how to see suffering through God’s eyes and how to utilize the tools God gives us to remain fervent in the faith and steadfast in the storm.

Suffering is the chisel God uses to sculpt the soul into an image of Christ. Nothing can overcome the faithful who bind themselves to the grace of God, develop virtuous lives, lean on the saints for help, and entrust themselves into the hands of the Blessed Virgin Mother. These practices are explained herein. With these aids, suffering is harnessed into a weapon against which the devil and all the forces of evil are powerless. All glory be to God!

A very good book illustrating that contrary to the way of the world why suffering is important! It shows why suffering doesn't mean we are forgotten by God and how we can use the suffering to help us in our walk with God, and as an instrument of God's Grace in helping other souls. I particularly found the reference to the souls in Purgatory thought provoking and to Our Lady's suffering. Definitely worth a read or listen.
