Pain Leads to the Prize

“In light of heaven, the worst suffering on earth will be seen to be no more serious than one night in an inconvenient hotel.”

Saint Teresa Of Avila

“The whole creation is on tiptoe to see the wonderful sight of the sons of God coming into their own.”

Richard Phillips

“in reality, hope is the worst of all evils, because it prolongs man’s torments.”

Friedrich Nietzsche

“Living without hope is no longer living. Hell is hopelessness and it is not for nothing that at the entrance of Dante’s hell there stands the words: ‘Abandon hope, all you who enter.’”

Jürgen Moltmann

“To get a picture of Heaven — which will one day be centered on the New Earth—you don’t need to look up at the clouds; you simply need to look around you and imagine what all this would be like without sin and death and suffering and corruption”
