(A Poor Soul)
The poor soul, Rachel, comes. She says: “Praise be to Jesus.”
“Please understand, and help others to understand, that while there is emotional and spiritual suffering in Purgatory, there is also very intense physical suffering. At the very lowest level, the flames are as intense as the eternal flames of Hell. Satan, who is the enemy of all souls, always wants the worst for each soul. If he cannot drag the sinner into his hellfire, then he tries to influence the soul to earn long hours in the fires of Purgatory.”
“Knowing this, souls should try to overcome the slightest imperfection so as to earn a speedy reward in Heaven for all eternity. Cooperate always with grace and do not allow evil to influence you. Let the Lord take dominion over every present moment.”
