Purgatory

 From The amazing secret of souls in purgatory

Maria Simma:

One day a doctor came to me complaining that he had to suffer because he had shortened the life of some patient by giving them injections so that they would not suffer any longer. He said that suffering, if endured with patience, is of tremendous value for the soul; one has the duty to relieve deep suffering, but one has no right to shorten life through chemical means.

Another time, a woman came. She said," I have had to suffer for thirty years in purgatory for not having allowed my daughter to enter a convent."

Q: Jesus said that it is difficult for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Have you , yourself, ever seen such a case?

A: Yes, but if they do good works, works of charity, if they exercise love, they can get to Heaven as the poor can.

Q: When the devil appears, does Holy water always make him flee?

A: It greatly upsets him and he often runs away.
