suffering and persecution are an integral part of our path of faith. In these difficult times, we are called to remember the
presence of God, who supports and guides us. As Isaiah says, "he brought our suffering" (
Isaiah 53: 4 ), and in the tests, we can find the Force to persevere. Let us also remember that our
faith is a powerful testimony, as emphasizes
Romans 8:18 , where it is written that the sufferings of the present time are nothing compared to the glory to come.
