This is the ultimate role of suffering: to facilitate our return to our heavenly Father, Who loves us more than we love ourselves and in Whose presence we will find joy and fulfillment (10)

The (Beatific) Vision incorporates all that is good and true in the universe: the beauty of mountain vistas and sunsets at the beach and the warm embrace of the person who loves you best, all wrapped together is a never-ending kaleidoscope of joy (17)

Joy is not in opposition to suffering it is the outcome of successfully meeting its challenges and completing its tasks (9)

To be joyful is to experience perfection, to share in the divine nature; in some sense, to become like God (8)
