Indeed, it is now clear that the soul of a faithful person, the most worthy of all creatures because of the grace of God, is greater than heaven itself, since the heavens and the rest of creation cannot contain their Creator; only a faithful soul is His dwelling place and throne, and this only through the charity that the wicked lack. The Truth says: Whoever loves me will be loved by My Father and I too shall love him, and We shall come to him and make Our dwelling place with him. (Jn 14:21,23).

St. Clare of Assisi writes...
If you suffer with Him, you will reign with Him (2 Tim 2:12).
Weeping with Him, you will rejoice with Him;
dying on the cross of tribulation with Him,
you will possess heavenly mansions with Him
among the splendor of saints and in the Book of Life (Phil 4:3; Rev3:5)
your name will be called glorious among the peoples.
