And Rain...

"Pain and suffering have come into your life, but remember pain, sorrow, suffering are but the kiss of Jesus - a sign that you have come so close to Him that He can kiss you." 

St. Mother Teresa

On rainy days like today, it is easy to dwell on the hard things that have happened in our lives. 

It is also easy to dwell on the things that haven't happened because of those hard things.

But these hard things have a purpose. 

All the pain, sorrow and suffering in the world, bring us closer to Jesus. 

"In that little Host is the solution to all the problems of the world." Pope St. John Paul II 

Our sorrow, our pain and our suffering are not wasted. 

Let Him kiss you. 

"And rain will make the flowers grow." Les Miserables
