Help me refute the "suffering will be insignificant in heaven" theodicy

Hi guy, I am making a video refuting some responses to the problem of evil, and I would like some help refuting a response. The response is that the suffering human beings endure on earth will be insignificant when we are in heaven, and it will almost look just like a bad dream. What would you guys say to that?
Another common theodicy is the greater good defence. It's the argument that God allows evil to achieve some greater good. My response would be to say that an omnipotent God could have actualized any logically possible state of affair without the need to create suffering, but I am not sure this response is strong enough.
