To recite it with devotion will be to consol Mary and to wipe away so many tears from her Immaculate Heart

There are no tears in heaven for the created.

There is a mystery here that none of us here on earth can totally comprehend. Because as you say “in heaven” there is no time, all is the eternal present.
Padre Pio said that Christ is suffering for our sins until the end of time.
The saints talk about making reparation and consolation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
The Body of Christ, the Church, will be crucified in this period of the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21; CCC 675-677). Jesus is the head of the Body of Christ and so even now He will suffer with us as the Church will be purified.

The Church’s ultimate trial
675 Before Christ’s second coming the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers. [573] The persecution that accompanies her pilgrimage on earth [574] will unveil the “mystery of iniquity” in the form of a religious deception offering men an apparent solution to their problems at the price of apostasy from the truth. the supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism by which man glorifies himself in place of God and of his Messiah come in the flesh. [575]
676 The Antichrist’s deception already begins to take shape in the world every time the claim is made to realize within history that messianic hope which can only be realized beyond history through the eschatological judgement. the Church has rejected even modified forms of this falsification of the kingdom to come under the name of millenarianism, [576] especially the “intrinsically perverse” political form of a secular messianism. [577]
677 The Church will enter the glory of the kingdom only through this final Passover, when she will follow her Lord in his death and Resurrection. [578] The kingdom will be fulfilled, then, not by a historic triumph of the Church through a progressive ascendancy, but only by God’s victory over the final unleashing of evil, which will cause his Bride to come down from heaven. [579] God’s triumph over the revolt of evil will take the form of the Last Judgement after the final cosmic upheaval of this passing world. [580]
