What Is The Message


Physical or moral suffering... is a call, an invitation, a pressing exhortation to improve, to change our life, to be reborn, to convert.  Nothing happens by chance.  In every circumstance we must ask ourselves:  "What does the Lord want from me?  From my situation, from this forced inactivity, from the people I encounter - what is the message that will enable me to purify my feelings, raise my spirit, and hear the voice of truth and conscience?       Pope John Paul II
