The longer the trial to which God subjects you, the greater the goodness in comforting you during the trial and in the exaltation after the combat.

I love to read of Padre Pio, Angela Parenza. Especially this quote, which offers comfort during a time of trial. Thank you.

Padre Pio comforts me, too, Angela Parenza. I think “the greater the goodness” is a wonderful phrase. It resonates.

I also like the phrase “the greater the goodness”. One needn’t look far to see others with bigger trials and tribulations. One must also remind oneself of 1st Corinthians 10:13. Thank you, Angela Parenza.

The trial part is all right, Angela Parenza, but the best part is about the exaltation after combat. That’s what I always look forward to.
