Suffering Saints
God has plans for us in life. These are for our own good. He thinks about nothing else but our own good (Jer 29:11). He is a good God and works in every thing and way for this purpose through peaceful means. He is called the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6). Also, when he afflicts,… Continue reading

Saints and Past
The Saints were all not born with perfection and holiness. Some were gravely into sin. But others were very mild in it. They slowly grew in virtues and the great Saints they have become today.

Holiness
Holiness is what God wants from us. For he is holy, we also should be holy (1 Peter 1:16). The oil (Mt 25:1-12) and the wedding garment (Mt 22:1-13) are needed for us to enter into his kingdom.

Saints: Against Publicity
God never wants us to seek earthly things(Romans 12:2). He has made it obvious in the life of his Saints too. They never liked publicity. Many great Saints lived the lives of hermits in forests to have a deep spiritual awakening. More so, Saints like Padre Pio never liked the spiritual phenomenon of the Stigmata… Continue reading

Faithfulness: The Prerequisite
We are called to be faithful and obey God’s voice. It is good for us in times of distress(Psalm 81:7). We should not rebel and do what our itching ears tell us(2Timothy 4:3). This is against his will. I know a person who was guided by Mother and it gave him rest while passing through… Continue reading
About Me
I’m a preacher and share a very close bond with Mother Mary. Being a Freelance Writer and having a Content Writing experience of over ten years, writing has become a part of my life. Adding sheen to this journey, I have published three books: two in the Catholic spirituality genre and another in self help; it is good to explore different genres. I reside with my immediate family in Bangalore and hope to share wisdom as such with everyone.
