Been Thinking of Purgatory a Lot, Lately.

Here is a good quote that was in My Morning Offering this morning.  Let’s remember to pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory, especially those who have no one else to pray for them.

“The greatest suffering of the souls in purgatory, it seems to me, is the awareness that something in them displeases God, that they have deliberately gone against His great goodness. I can also see that the divine essence is so pure and light-filled- much more than we can imagine- that the soul that has but the slightest imperfection would rather throw itself into a thousand hells than appear thus before the divine presence.”
— St. Catherine of Genoa, pp.41
