And Jesus never tired of reminding her that her sufferings take on great power when united to His Cross. This message must never be forgotten.

It’s important to know that the Lord will never allow you to carry a cross that is beyond your strength. Do you believe this? If you do, it should help you to set your eyes on the road ahead and plunge forward doing the Will of God.

The Lord, in His abundant Mercy, comes to you day and night and joyfully enters your soul when it is open to Him. Even the greatest struggles do not deter our Lord from coming to you.

Everyone is called to holiness and in that holiness is able to obtain complete happiness. But God always chooses some for a special mission of holiness, a higher form of holiness. These souls could be called “Seraphic Souls.” The classic example is to compare two glasses of water. One is large and one is small. They are both filled to the brim so t…

One of the easiest things you can do in life is be lazy. Imagine if you had no responsibilities, had all the wealth you could ever want and could spend your days in luxury and relaxation.

Loneliness is a deep suffering that many endure. One reason it is so painful is that the lonely person obviously suffers alone with few people, if any, to help ease their hurt.

The devil is real and his temptations are real. He hates you with a pure hate and desires your destruction. This is good to know.

When we engage in a conversation with another, it is always an opportunity to share the love of God. Even casual conversation has such potential.

It’s true that no earthly image can fully reveal the perfect love of God. God is transcendent and His love is beyond what this world can contain.

Should we fear the truth? On one hand the truth can get us in trouble. Look, for example, at the Martyrs. They are witnesses to the truth with the shedding of their blood.
