Further to my homily on suffering, please find the link to the document I quoted from St. John Paul II. This document is available in several languages. To change the language, once you see the English versiou, you can select the other languages at the second line from the top right hand corner of the webpage. APOSTOLIC LETTER SALVIFICI DOLORIS OF THE SUPREME PONTIFF JOHN PAUL II (ON THE CHRISTIAN MEANING OF HUMAN SUFFERING)
This Apostolic Letter is an exellent reflection on suffering and gives the proper perspective on the first reading from the Book of Job.
