What does it mean this expression: The Redemptive value of Suffering?
Jesus is our only redeemer and no other. With his life, passion, death and resurrection he has saved the whole of human kind. Therefore there is no other redeemer of the world, but Jesus.
However, he has wanted to share with us this redemption of the world. Therefore, when we suffer Jesus invites us to join our sufferings to his sufferings. And our sufferings united to the sufferings of Christ gain redemptive value. Christ encourages us to suffer with him and thus share in his passion, death and resurrection.
It is very encouraging to me to think that I can share with my sufferings in the redemption of the world.
Thank you Lord Jesus for being so generous with us. With our sufferings Christ allows us to share in the redemption of the world. I adore you oh Christ for by your sufferings and cross you have redeemed the human kind.
