ESPRESSO SHOT: Dazzled By My Suffering

by Father Brian J. Soliven on Thursday July 24, 2025

In the crucible of our deepest pain, where the heart is pierced by sorrow and trial, we encounter the mystery of Christ's own suffering. It is precisely in these moments of darkness that Jesus, the Suffering Servant, draws near, offering His compassionate presence. Through the cross, He transforms our anguish into a path of grace, inviting us to unite our wounds with His, that we may find not despair, but the hope of resurrection. In our pain, we are never alone, for He is with us, the source of all consolation.
