Your grief will become joy

May 10, 2018 6:00 am

“Amen, amen, I say to you, you will weep and mourn, while the world rejoices; you will grieve, but your grief will become joy.”

Our Lord came to us to save us and remind us that our future is with Him in Heaven and that we are called and invited to bear fruit. It doesn’t mean that everything here on earth will be easy and nice: “I say to you, you will weep and mourn, while the world rejoices; you will grieve…” It means, fortunately, that when we are with Him and when we put our trust in Him and are united with Him, “our grief will become joy.”

“I will not leave you orphans, says the Lord; I will come back to you, and your hearts will rejoice.” (Gospel Acclamation)
