Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, referred numerous times to the fact that the only way in which one can enter heaven is to pick up your cross daily and follow Him. Our Blessed Lord never once promised us that life in this world would be easy, nice, or comfortable, but that IF we accept our daily cross we would find joy both in this world and happiness in the next. The perks of being a parish priest are many more opportunities to pick up your cross daily and follow Him. A parish priest is called (that is the meaning of the word "vocation" it is a form of the Latin word "to call") by his vocation to deny himself, and be the hands and feet of Christ. Priests are called day and night to offer themselves as "other Christs" for the salvation of the faithful, and if they do this daily and with complete self-abnegation, they are promised joy and happiness in the next life.
