Holiness and Heaven
Holiness is a currency for heaven. If a person wants to reach here, he has to wear the garment of holiness. Otherwise, the entry is rejected. Or more precisely, the person who reaches the gates of heaven—being unqualified—is thrown out into the outer darkness, where there is weeping gnashing of teeth [Mt 22:13]. Imagine what… Continue reading

God: Other Worldly
Jesus, while on Earth, was the very essence of God. He didn’t want to be popular like celebrities and discouraged anyone who wanted to make him one (John 6:15). He did not have possessions which he could call his own nor a home and a bed to lay down to sleep (Matthew 8:20). More so,… Continue reading

Prayers
God’s healing in his people’s lives takes its own time. He makes everything beautiful in his time(Ecclesiastes 3:11). His promises may take time, but are sure and amen(2 Cor 1:20). Wherever prayers are offered to God, there is hope(Proverbs 23:18). Our duty is to pray without ceasing(1 Thes 5:17). Many Saints prayed constantly. St Faustina… Continue reading

God’s Ways
God’s ways are utterly different and we can’t understand Him(Psalm 55:8,9). Normally, we understand people by what they do and judge them; we build an impression about them by doing this.

A Holy Death
Jesus Christ conquered death on the Cross. Death stings us no more(1Corinthians 15:55). After Jesus’ victory we are raised imperishable and enter eternal life, if we live in His grace(1Corinthians 15:42). For this is what we strive for(1Corinthians 9:24). The death of Saints was holy. St Anthony of Padua saw Jesus at the moment of… Continue reading

Heaven- The Other World
The heavenly world is perfect. God, Mother and the citizens here do not have misunderstandings or are misled when trusting or talking with people. Everything is laid bare; people are perfectly understood (John 1:47). Here, the intentions of people are known and sound judgments are issued. Nothing is hidden and nothing will be too in… Continue reading

Saints at Work
The Saints in Heaven pray for us constantly. They see to it that all the people represented by them are doing well. One of these instances could be seen in the Bible wherein Jeremiah –long after his death– is praying for the Jews and assures his prayer (2Maccabees 15:13-16). Many of the modern day Saints… Continue reading

God and Peace
It’s God’s will that we should be at peace with all(Romans 12:18). Though there are all kinds of people, God calls us to be peaceful for He is the Prince of Peace(Isaiah 9:6). More so, peace is one of the qualities of His Kingdom(Romans 14:17). Many of the Saints were known to bring peace around… Continue reading
