In the ordinary course no one enters heaven unless he has passed through the school of affliction.  It makes men feel the nothingness of this life, it detaches them from possessions and pleasures, it teaches them patience, resignation, fortitude, trust in God;  it shows them that nothing is of any value but the service of God on earth and the possession of Him in heaven.  Endeavour to learn these lessons.
